1999 Winny Brave Leaking cold water

We just left home for the south and the subject RV is leaking water from the passenger side, engine compartment, from some kind of large black plastic box.

It's plain water, it's cold, engine is at temperature, heater's been on, no a/c. It's dripping too much water to be from A/c.

Drat!

Edit: we just had it swerviced and they said they topped off everything.. windshield washer?

  • Thanks. She says a/c not on, defrost off. Seems like too much water for condensate. It was dripping pretty good. Stopped now.
  • large plastic box on passenger side is USUALLY were the dash heater core and dash air conditioning are located. So since it is clear water and not antifreeze we can hopefully eliminate the heater core as the culprit. This leaves only the dash A/C. Are you aware that the A/C runs when the control is on defrost? So it is probably condensate
  • Could be windshield washer.

    Could also be condensate from the dash A/C. Was the dash air or defrost on?
