Water Leak - Roof of Main Slideout

[mereeks]

The roof of my main slide out leaked during a major rain storm yesterday. The water was dripping through the molding at the front of the slide out onto the floor. We closed up the slideout and left the area but there is still water trapped in the slide out roof. We are trying to figure out the best way to dry out the water without tearing the roof up. The RV does not have access to electricity right now. The earliest appointment I could get from a repair facility is December. Any suggestions on how to dry out the trapped water?

Doubt much if any water actually got under the roof membrane. I would just open the slide (battery) and let it dry out.

What year is your Montana?
If under warranty call Keystone ASAP!
Sounds like a seal is bad or had something damaged it. Open slide and inspect seals check when slide is open halfway from inside then outside.
Agree with above that water probably didn’t get in ceiling of slide.
Good Luck

The water is inside the roof - it is dripping though the light fixtures and the face of the molding attached to the front of the slide out. I pulled a piece of strip on the ceiling and water dripped from there also. I tried to put a small hole where the strip was but hit wood. Thanks for any suggestions you might have - I was thinking of pulling the light fixtures to create an opening.
