drv2013 Leaking Bedroom Slide

I feel like we have sealed everything, but still the front corner of the slide is getting wet!! Has anyone been able to fix this issue.

Look at the vinyl seal that moves when the slide goes in and out. I had the same problem, and it was because the seal did not face out when the slide moved out . the seal stayed "flipped in towards the camper when the slide was extended and created a path for water to get inside the seal.. Hope this helps as this is a fairly easy fix, and just requires a visual look-see when the slide is extended.

Similar to R Walker's comment, I found that on one slide that after extending it, I had to be sure that the seal/flap over the top of the slide had to be pulled out so that it covered the top of the vertical seal/flap on the back of the slide.


That said, our model is a 2010 one, so I don't know if it is the same as yours. And sadly, we are on our Summer job and in Oregon, so I can't take a picture of the two seals/flaps to clarify what I speak of.
