I pulled the window, cleaned off all the old butyl and replaced it, starting at the center bottom. It never leaked again.
It didn't start leaking at first, the RV was about 3 years old when we started noticing the damp carpet along the inner edge of the slide.

How did you pull the window out? Are there screws? It's been raining hard all day and we have two windows leaking. One in the bedroom slide and the other is an emergency window at the rear of the RV in the kitchen.
