So every time I sprayed water inside the box due to a leaking connection, it allowed water from the spray and water at the bottom of the box to seep into floor space. Once I sealed that area with silicon, my problem went away.

Thanks. Sounds very similar to what I’m experiencing. I’m thinking it may be the water inlet. Only problem is that I can’t seem to get to it, or should say see it visually to confirm. I lifted the bed and removed a panel to access the water pump…dry. I pulled the valve panel that switches city water to on board, etc. but can’t see down in there. I’m surmising that it has to be coming from the inlet. Funny enough, just received the new issue of Family RVing and it mentions that this check valve is prone to leaking.
Called Jayco and was able to get a copy of the plumbing diagram. I disconnected the inlet from the side wall to see how I could change it out, but it looks like it’s connected to a PEX run so I didn’t want to pull it out too far to cause a real problem. I guess I’ll have to see how best to replace as I don’t see an area like you mention to seal. That inlet is right next to the storage door on my unit; thought to I could pull out a panel to access but no dice. I would have to pull out the entire metal box portion behind the door to even see if I can get to it (located in the OHC area at the head of the bed).
Leak was minimal but a leak is a leak and I want to fix. All water is out as it’s back in storage for a few months. Has my one else had issue with that inlet check valve leaking, and if so we’re you able to pull it out enough to change?
