Leaks? Help with understanding where the water is coming from
#10
(05-07-2017, 05:23 AM)Crackofdawn Wrote: I finally found the source of my leak.  It was the raw water PVC pipe that runs from the aft pump up the port side and to the rubber hose connection to the AC/Heat unit.  A glued joint gave way in the PCV pipe.  I had to pull the microwave and stove to get access to the joint.  Why would the factory put a joint in this location? They did provide an access panel in the side for the cabinet behind the stove insert but I would have put the joint in the engine room instead of hiding it in this area.  I had stopped using the heat and AC for awhile and as soon as I started using the AC again the fwd bilge started getting water and the floor would get wet so I pressure tested the line and sure enough, it would not hold pressure.  Anyway leak is fixed and the fwd bilge stays dry now.

Glad you found it- good detective work and thanks for posting the resolution.
