Gang,

Since I have had my coach, I have been on a quest to stop rattles. I have found and silenced many. Most have been caused by wood-on-wood trim pieces, unsecured cables, and the plastic pieces that were secured with worn-out velcro.

I am down to a hard to diagnose rattle. It seems as if it is inside the side wall right behind the drivers window. I can put my hand on the wall and can feel the rattle through the wall. If I touch the slide wall, I cannot feel the rattle....just in the coach wall.

So my question is...has anyone been into the wall right behind the drivers window? I am making a guess that it is a channel that wires are run in to get to the number 1 slide. Since I have found tons of cables with no tie downs routed in open voids....I am thinking the same thing here.

Suggestions about how to go about figuring this out? I have two ideas...
1) drill a hole in the wall and see if it is filled with foam and if not, spray some expandable foam into the void. 2) drill a larger hole in the wall and drop a video cam and see whats going on.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Cheers,
bill
