Heki MIDI skylight leak issue
My problem appeared after traveling/camping for over a week and sitting in 3 rain "storms"... with NO leaks or problems. Upon my return I had to park the truck/camper on the street at the Burban...

If there is water between the domes from rain, you must have a crack in the top dome. Cracks are not always easy to see, you might try light from different angles and polarized glasses. The top dome is supposed to be watertight, and it has enough overlap on the frame to keep it watertight driving 70 mph in the rain.
The inner and outer dome are sealed at the edges, but you can remove the screws from the inside that secure the hold-open brackets and get it to dry from there. I had a cracked inner dome and got water inside while trying to clean the dome. I rinsed it out with distilled water as best I could, drained what I could, then ran a small volume of dry compressed air through it on a warm day for a long time. It will take ages to dry if you do not get some dry air to circulate through, doing so will reduce ages to hours.
