Have a look above the door on the coach. We had the corner connection of that molding part ever so little but enough for water to seep through the gap. Run down and make the very same bit of carpet wet. I used some silicon in the corner of that molding and everything is now fine.

I have had a local shop working on a similar leak for four years. I recently used silicon sealer on top of the downward curving molding above the door. So far, the leak has stopped.

I wrestled with a similar (same?) leak for a while and finally discovered the cause of the leak at the Girard awning where the electrical cable for the motor was not sealed where it entered the coach. Once I sealed that, all was well...
