Water Leak

Noticed a small water leak/dripping near and aft of the convenience center but believe I have isolated the leak to the hot water side of the outside shower faucet---it only leaks/seeps when I flash up the hot water heater. I can stop the leak by opening the hot faucet slightly which seems to relieve hot water pressure and stops the leak. So, how do I get at the back of the outside shower faucet to tighten the fixtures/connections?

on the left side there are about 5 screws heads facing the front of the 5er bottom to top. it is also attached to the floor, follow the screws around. i removed the trap to the shower, then you pull back and remove the white plastic cover its very pliable when its warm. on the back side of the shower faucet there are all your connection i have tighten all of mine every year. good luck.

Definitely good advice on removing the shower trap to make removal of the panel easier. As a suggestion do it over a bucket or some towels, there will be water spilled in the process (everytime I did it on the 3400 anyway, I had water running on to towels after I experienced a wet carpet the first time). While you are behind there, take the time to tighten everything, it will surprise you what you find!!!
