Apply some teflon tape or get some plumbers sealant for threads. Use channel lock pliers to snug them up if tight.

I guess that could be it but I poured a lot of antifreeze down the drain, I know how to winterize been doing it a while never a problem.

Anyway, carry on....happy trails!
It's good to hear you've fixed the leak, and we look forward to your advice or questions here. Thanks for your update, and picture of the repaired p-trap. Water leaks are particularly very frustrating, especially if they're stubborn ones.

I read it! And most common issues can be repaired with Teflon tape or plumbers sealant. The nylon tapered seal should seal properly, but if? its not aligned then its difficult to get proper fits, especially in areas limited to working space. Often from factory plumbing was not installed properly and modifications have to be made. Mine came brand new and plumbing was rubbing against backside of cabinet. So I had to change fittings out myself and fix poor workmanship by Jayco's factory tech. My RV dealer tech placed a rigid foam against cabinet and plumbing pipe and wedged it in tight?? Great fix!
