When you say "top exterior sealant" you mean what you can see on the outside on the top of the window? (Crawling on the roof looking down onto the gap between the window and the side of the coach?) I looked the other day and could see where the Thor tech had run sealant along that gap.
I'm guessing for my current leak the water just found a path that the tech missed so I should be able to just plug up the missed points and I'm good!  |
That's the sealant I'm talking about (although I personally prefer the "climb a ladder" method to see it - anything to keep me off the edges of the roof!) If your current leak has water coming in rather violently through the bottom of the frame, I'd check all the weep holes around the base. If water was getting in through the top sealant, I think it would trickle/race/pour down the frame and end up running off the sides into the wall, as opposed to finding it's way around the bottom of the window. Is it coming out straight downwards towards the floor, or in a vertical fashion - more up and out from the metal surround that's screwed in? Or just directly under the window glass, bypassing the frame altogether? There are a number of lips involved in all parts of the framework - just trying to see if I can help narrow it down any!
