water leak

Whenever it rains heavy with very gusty winds, I find a pool of water on the floor in front of fridge. At one time during a very heavy rain I could see water running down the front inside panel of the fridge. Trailer is 2008 Montana 32' travel trailer. Would appreciate some ideas to find leak and resolve problem.

We had a similar leak. Turned out to be lacking some caulk on that side of the rig. Recaulked everything around there and the leak disappeared.

Make sure that all the fat, soft, wiper gaskets are facing out when slides are out. Particularly the vertical ones on the kitchen slides. They sometimes tend to flip only partly out when the slides are moved out. I one of them is folded over it acts as a funnel to bring water inside. If you find that this is the is the situation either bring the kitchen slide part way back in and go inside and push the gaskets out manually. Or use the awning to slide under the gasket on the outside and flip it all out.... Dave

Can we get the instructions for removal of the awning to use it for the gasket flipping!!! Sorry Dave, couldn't resist such a large opening!! I know what you meant.

Dang, Bingo beat me to it! I use the awning pull hook myself but Dave may do things a little differently. They say that happens when you've been down under the water to long!! Sorry Dave, I had to jump in on that one too!!
