I would think they are all made like that. With the slide closed look down between the couch and stove. At the bottom of the slide frame you should see a small black "drip pan" under the seal with a black wire running over/around it.

Did the factory do that just for the repair of the lead or are all of them made that way? Seems weird to me. Thanks for the update on the leak.

The water leak was at the bottom right corner of the slide out. There is a drip pan there that was installed with a "sag" in it allowing water to follow a wiring harness from the drive motor down under the stove and run forward. I put a block of UHMW (Plastic) under the sag to prop it up and now the water runs out under the slide as designed.

I have contacted Starcraft customer service, no response. Enough said. Still looking for the leak, no luck yet.
Just curious, did you locate the leak? I have the same trailer year and model and was wondering.

The only thing I can think of would be the baggage door opening is not properly sealed or the window above the baggage door is leaking and water is dripping down somehow. Double check these places. If the window is leaking on the inside and dripping down, you would for sure notice that.
Keep us posted on your findings and puzzle solving.

Does this trailer have a EDPM or TPO roof? Can’t find the answer in the owners manual. I am going to reseal the corners of the roof in the spring. Has some type of black sealant on it right now, lots of voids in the sealant, may be the source of the leak. Thanks

I purchased the trailer used last fall, came with a 30 warranty. Only used it twice, noticed the leak after the 30 days. It’s a 2015 26BHS. The leak is under the front bedroom bed on the left side under the storage door frame. Water is seeping in where the wall and floor meet. I will try and attach a pic. Any ideas?

Check the seal between the armor-plate and front wall/side wall corner. I understand that the previous owner of my RV (2015 26bhs) had a problem the first month he had it so he decided to return the unit. The dealer had to take the whole thing apart and redo it "properly". According to my dealer, it was quite a job. I have had no problem in the past two years I have owned it and we live in the rainy Pacific Northwest. I would get in touch with StarCraft to see what they have to say about this.

I believe I have the same model. Mine is a 2016 so I don't know what year your's is. I'm trying to imagine just where your leak is? Is the water coming down the wall onto the floor on the inside of the trailer in the front bedroom? You might check the window seal or roof gutter. A picture would really help.
How old is your trailer? Is it still under warranty?
Please post when you figure it out so other members with the same trailer/issue can benefit as well. Thanks for posting.
