OK , so I tried this test today . I was getting a small water leak showing up at the bottom of the passenger wall at the wing . It did not always occur , and happened on or off truck .
Used a 5hp shop vac and kids bubble solution . Tapped off every opening I could find . I spayed generously every seam , protrusion and all the windows .
The only bubbles that showed up was the top corner of a front crank out window from under the rain flap and the same place on the rear bath crank out window .
Neither of these would account for where the water is showing up , especially when the camper is stationary .
The question is for those who have been successful at this . Is the shop vac not enough ? Was the bubble solution not good enough ? If the bubbles showed up in 2 places it would seem that both the above were sufficient to show up any other leaks . Puzzled :?
