Shower drain leak

[Montana_1026]

I have a shower drain leak into my storage compartment on a 3400RL. The drain sealing puddy had worked it's way out over time.
Does anyone know how to remove the shower drain from the shower side to reseal it?

We have this same problem on our 2006 3400RL.

This must be a common problem, ours does the same thing, I havent had a chance to look at it yet. Maybe this week end.

Mine leaked and I was able to remove the "S" trap in the basement, then reach up through the very small hole in the flooring (I actually enlarged it with a keyhole saw) and remove the nut holding the down pipe to the shower drain. I noticed that the rubber washer was crimped so I bought a new one and replaced it. I reinstalled the down pipe, tightening the nut finger tight as much as possible, then took a screwdriver properl positioned against the nut, then tapped the handle of the screwdriver so as to tighten the nut a little more. I then reinstalled the "S" trap and now no more leak!
Hope this helps someone. I know that all the rigs are built different (thus the different numbers) and your layout may be different than mine. However, it shouldn't be too hard to fix. The hardest part for me (I'm 74) was to crawl up into the basement so I could be right under the drain.

We had a shower leak too and someone here had already posted a solution which we followed. Hopefully you can fix it with the washer but we ended up removing all pipe and fittings from the trap back to the shower.

I resealed the drain fitting in the shower (with the strip calk used around windows), installed a new rubber gasket and then cut a piece out of the horizontal drain and installed a flex rubber connection from Home Depot so the whole assembly could move a little without stressing anything. (When I stand in the shower, it looks like the shower floor may move a little).

Everything could be accessed in our 3380 from the basement in the unit, albeit awkwardly. Maybe overkill but no problems for over a year. Good luck!

I may be wrong, but I tought there was a "trap door" on the side of the shower. If you unscrew that, would you not be able to access the drain from in the coach? Just a thought.

Thanks for the solutions, I will let you all know how it works out.
