Well update

i rechaulked the window because i thought it was comming in there but now i think it might be running down the side of wall and underneath somehow seeping in because i did a water test on roof nothing but then i did windows nothing then did roof again then saw the floor geeting wet but as i said every test i did the water was running down the side and going under the slide it has a black plactic cover on it but wondered if any has ever had that spot let water seep in i will cover it with tape and seal the edge just to see if that helps

I had a leak in one of my slide outs at one time. Turned out water was running down the slide out end then in through a pinhole in the caulk seam along the lower drip edge molding. I caught it quickly and made the repair before any damage occurred.
You may want to take a close look at the molding strips.

That is what i think was happening water was running down the slideout wall outside and on bottom of slide out was getting in somehow causing the floor to be damp i chaulked all that the other day and we had rain in the morning that eveining went up to check it was dry as a cork so hopfully i got it i thought everything from roof to windows then it ends up being the bottom
