Replaced my slide out seals last month but water still keeps pouring in every time it rains — am I missing something obvious here?

I've heard it could be the weatherstripping or seals, but I'm not sure how to inspect them properly or what other things might cause leaks. Could someone walk me through a systematic approach to find and fix slide out water leaks? I'd really appreciate guidance on what to check first and how to go about diagnosing the problem.

While the seals look okay visually, something clearly isn't sealing right when it rains. …more

About two weeks into living in my 2023 Forest River Forester MBS2401B and this slide out I've never dealt with before is leaking water from the bottom. The leak occurs specifically when the slide is in the retracted position during wind-driven rain events. Water is penetrating at floor level beneath the dinette area of the full wall slide assembly.

I have verified that all visible seals appear to be properly seated and the topper awning shows no obvious damage. Given that this is occurring on a current model year unit, I need to understand if this represents a manufacturing defect covered under warranty, and what specific component is likely causing the failure at the bottom of the slide mechanism. …more

Between running my AC constantly or relying on fans and ventilation to stop windshield condensation in my 31-foot Class A during Naples' brutal 89% humidity. Experiencing persistent exterior windshield condensation at 5:15 AM, while side windows and rear bedroom window remain clear. Recently modified ventilation by closing all four interior AC roof vents to test temperature regulation effects.

Condensation appears as moderate moisture accumulation on windshield exterior surface, with minimal condensation on some side windows. This occurs during typical Florida morning conditions with significant temperature differential between nighttime glass surface and ambient air humidity levels.

Require systematic approach to eliminate both interior and exterior condensation formation. What are the most effective methods to prevent windshield fogging through humidity control, ventilation management, and thermal barriers? Need technical solutions that address root causes rather than temporary fixes. …more

I noticed my 2005 Gulfstream Crescendo's slide-out T-track bulb seal has deteriorated for the third time this season and I'm done replacing it blindly. The existing seal fits into a T-track configuration with specific dimensional requirements - the track opening is approximately 3/16" wide with the T-head measuring 3/8" at its widest point.

Standard automotive or hardware store seals don't appear to match these specifications. What's the proper methodology for sourcing replacement T-track bulb seals that will fit correctly? Also seeking guidance on preparation procedures to ensure proper installation and seal longevity. …more

Wondering why my 2019 Holiday Rambler Vacationer 36F windshield wipers went completely dead yesterday and now won't budge at all? System shows no power to wipers - no movement, no motor sound, no response from switch positions.

Initial diagnosis indicates potential fuse or relay failure. Located under-dash fuse panel and identified wiper-related fuses and relays, but suspect there may be additional fuse locations in the electrical system that require inspection.

Require confirmation of all fuse box locations for wiper circuit on Ford chassis Holiday Rambler, specifically engine compartment power distribution box accessibility and proper relay testing methodology for systematic troubleshooting approach. …more
