Mr. Todd,
Please tell the people of what it is to inspect the little hose where it
fits inside the box in back of the camper?
You are very kind.
But please tell all.
It is almost a day job,and takes two people to get this back up correct
and easy.
Do not forget to tell about the foamy wicks inside the box for the water
to.
I am thinking of what I did for the water leak at same place.
not a good job

Good evening

The hoses, at least in the Westy campers, go to a plastic tray that sits
under the coils. Usually, if you have dripping, it is because the tubes
are clogged up at the end where they drain down the side vents. However,
I had one come off at the connection to the plastic tray, so I had to
reconnect it. Something worth checking if merely making sure the hose is
open does not work.

A couple of weeks back I had a problem with my 90 Multivan dripping
water from the overhead AC unit. It is mainly dripping on the side away
from the storage cabinets and right under the speaker. I searched the
archives and put out a question on the list. I took off the side pillar
air vents and snaked a flexible but stiff-enough wire up the drip hoses.
Although I got about 2 to 2 1/2 feet into the hose, I had a feeling that
I didn't hit pay dirt because there was no gush of water. So where do I
start trouble-shooting to find the problem and how difficult might this
be?
