Title: Just when I thought I had it fixed!

I am just returning from a very nice Country Coach Rally (South Western CC). It rained and it really rained. I had a leak which runs into my electronic cabinet. It had done this before, and I drilled a hole in the cabinet to keep the electronics dry. The issue had been over for several years and just reappeared. I went up on the roof and I could not find any holes or issue that would cause water entry. Both the door awning and the slide are near this area. I was hopeful that someone may have a suggestion or had similar experience. I looking for a lead. The last time the leak was the speed indicator on the roof.

Hi Jim,

We have a second leak too.. that is currently covered with a tarp... it is coming from the top of the windshield.
It appears that the sealant has broken loose and if anyone has any solutions to re seal it, I would love the advise
A previous leak was around a fantastic fan.. that was pretty easy to find and fix... It appears that the sealant around all of the fixtures must be removed every few years and then new sealant applied, Love some feedback on this too.

Thanks all...
Russ

James, I had the same thing happen and found that the water was coming from a void in the caulk where the small awning over the door attaches to the side of the coach. I caulked the dog out of it and it has never leaked since. That was a couple of years ago. Hope this is your problem, since it is an easy fix.
