Water leak

2014 Jayco Eagle 34.5 BHTS

I have a leak of my fresh water system when I'm connected to city water or the system is pressurized. It looks like it's coming out from the panel behind and just above where the fresh water plugs in - behind the outdoor shower faucet controls. RV service in this area is "glacial speed" at best so I'd rather tackle it myself. I'm not afraid of simple repairs. Pics attached are all turned 90 counter clockwise, sorry about that. So, any thoughts on what's going on and how to get in there? TIA

Many similar complaints here on JOF just in the past week, and with many different Jayco models.
Most likely a loose or cracked connection on the backside of the fitting.

I figured something has either cracked or come loose. Just can't figure out how to get back in there. It's a panel, there's got to be a way to access it somehow.

There should be a removable panel in the basement that gives you access to the backside of the panel. From there you’ll just have to find the leak. I recently had a leak and it was from 2 cracked seals inside an elbow and lever.

If you open the low point drain access you may be able to use a mirror to view the back of the panel. Light up the back area of the panel and position the mirror around to check it out. There should be a way to access the area by removing the panel to the left. If not, by looking thru the low point drain access you can see where to cut an access to the left. You should be able to tighten the fittings thru the low point drain access. Good luck.
