On 2 trailers I've found hose directly on the backside of the city water connection to be extremely loose and leaking so anyone finding this thread might check that as well. There should be a panel that unscrews to gain access - often from inside the main storage bay of your fiver.
Yes, I second that. I had same situation on our new Starcraft. The hoses they use inside are so stiff and have to much memory as if they are still wanting to recoil themselves around a spool. So the hose itself inadvertently unthreaded the water connections inside the trailer. First I thought it was a slide out leak after a terrible downpour, thankfully not. I fixed the situation by unscrewing the connection, then I twisted the hose counter-clockwise and while holding that position with the hose I reattached it to the connection and it almost threaded itself when I released the tension. No more leaks now.
