Water dripping underneath the RV (right below fridge)

Hi..we are in middle of a camping trip. Noticing that wate was dripping below the refrigerator area on the ground and also on the side of electric panel enclosure on the other side. Just filled up the fresh water tank(2/3) for our return trip needs.

Any feedback on the reason for this water dripping?

Can it be a common cause for both these drippings?

  • Thank you all for the feedback

    Took it to RV service today (upon multiple requests got an appointment otherwise 3 weeks out).

    The dripping below the fridge area next to the propoane tank was the grey water tank crack :-(

    The tech initially thought it was the Fridge defrost drain hose and he opened up and checked that tube and it was in a different area and there was no evidence of water leak.

    Now the grey water tank is patched using a "plastic tank and radiator repair kit". Hopefully this stops the leak now.

    The leak in the hot water panel area was that the water let out stopper has cracked and he tried to take it out but it broke. Ended up cutting it out and then replace.
  • Drain tube is plugged up. When the fridge defrosts, the water accumulates in the tray on the inside of the fridge. From there it dribbles out into the tray in the outside fridge compartment. It's then supposed to drain out thru the hose to the outside. Remove and/or flush both lines and your 'issue' will go away. Dennis
  • Normal as long as it's coming from the drain tube that should be directed out the side vent?

    If the vent tube is not dripping outside the trailer, then I'd start checking where it is dripping from...

    If it's dripping on any structure parts of the trailer, that's not right..

    Good luck!

  • I took a video of the leak from the bottom..I see a round tank and next to it is a rectangular tray kind of an object. The water is leaking near a corner of the rectangular tank.

    Not able to upload the link here.

    The water dripping from the hot potato area has ceased now.
