Well lesson to self, when you create a check list follow the check list.

I was de-winterizing the Challenger today and as I began the fresh water sanitation process I noticed water running out from under the area of the fridge. This occurred after I turned on my water pump and I was extending the kitchen slide at the same time. Upon investigation I got the distinct smell of a high concentrate of chlorine like that in a 1.75 cups of chlorine to 6 and 2/3 gallons of water. Yep it was my sanitizing solution leaking onto the floor of the coach.

After pulling the bottom kitchen cabinet drawers the best I could determine was it was coming from the ice maker line. I shut off the ice maker water valve and the leak stopped.

Then it hit me. The question of a lifetime why was the ice maker valve open and the line still attached to the valve? Answer, this dumbass forgot to winterize the ice maker and now I get to fix the problem.
