Leak from top seal of slide (both sides)

[dougnpatti]

We haven't had rain for a month, but I noticed something odd while winterizing the camper. With the slide out, there was water slowly dripping from both sides of the top slider seal (the one fastened to the camper body, not the slide). We haven't run the AC in months either. Are there water lines in the roof that could be leaking?

Any insight would be appreciated.

BTW: This is a 2005 Springdale 295 BL

On top of your slides you will find a white tape over the seams on the leading edges. Periodically replacing that tape is considered a normal maintenance function of the owner. If you fail to replace it and it causes water intrusion damage to your slide, chances are your insurance WILL NOT cover any portion of the damage. In the web page provided below you can view the type of tape needed to perform the needed maintenance.

Having a slide pulled for repair is very expensive. Labor alone on most Keystone slides will call for a minimum of 10 hours.

Is there a "recommended procedure" for replacing the tape I can read somewhere?
