What type of signs are you looking for?
Not exactly sure, since I haven't had any window leaks, that I know of. But I am guessing that there would be some discoloring on the interior wall, maybe some moisture. The reason I am asking is I am trying to be preventative and didn't want to slap caulk all around the window frames if it is not neded.
Another way is to pull a screw at each corner and see if its rusty.
Just my opinion about window posts and leaking...
Keep your weep holes clean out, water needs to drain to outside not overflow in track to inside.
RV's around 10 years old with leak problem, putty needs to be looked at.
Many think they have a window frame leak but leak coming in from higher, either running lights or roof.
I like the brand "tacky tape" for putty tape.
I've done all of our RV's over the years. Some windows are a pain to get out. When you take out screws keep them in order of how they came out so if you do have a problem you can look at screw and see where discoloration starts.
RV windows are not cheap!
