Possible cause of leak?
Went out to my off-the-truck camper to get some tools. Reached way back into the compartment under the fridge and grabbed the cardboard box. Yikes, it's soggy. :( First water I've found inside my camper in the 13 years I've owned it.
Took a look outside and found a possible culprit. I know where the water ends up is not necessarily right below where the leak is, but it can be. The culprit looks like the external fridge compartment. The "floor" putty caulking has separated by about 1/4" from the enclosure plastic framing. I did take a look at the caulking on the edge of the roof and at the bottom of the side panel in the leak area. Don't see any obvious problem.
Not sure how the water got into the fridge compartment through the cover louvers, but we've had a few inches of rain recently with sometimes strong winds.
Take a look at the pics and let me know what you think. I'm going to fill the gap and hope that's the cause. In the pic of the leak area, the propane plastic box is what is at the left. In the pic of the fridge compartment, the box ends about where the the vertical "tab" on the left side of plastic frame is. So, to the left of the tab is compartment with the leak damage.
Thanks,
