Ed we are having some difficulty posting those pics due to size on the forum.

**UPDATE**   :-\  Unfortunately, Carol is unable to post pics from her tablet, where the pictures are stored. Something has changed, either with the tablet software or the forum itself, as she's never had a problem posting pics in the past.  So sorry!  She will keep trying!   :D

I have the same leak on mine, although it's not consistent. Sometimes when it rains it stays dry on the inside, other times maybe when it is windy or we get a torrential downpour it is wet in the corner above the door. I'm glad to be part of a family where we all have the same problems and are able help each other out! It helps me to prepare for my next big expense!

Greg,
Before you start pulling the awning, make sure that there are no cracks in the amber clearance lights above the windshield. I have seen a cracked clearance light lens that was causing a leak like you described. The clearance lights are bad about sun cracking and leaking. If they have any cracks, replace them.

Thanks Gerald,

The lens above the passenger seat is cracked, and the silicone looks pretty weathered. I think I will go for the cheap and easy fix first...

Belinda, I just noticed your earlier post. We had severe leaking on our 2000 Marquis. We applied a strip of Eterna Bond the length of the top of the box. It has not leaked a drop since. we used to have a flood over the door. I hope this helps you.
