Hello,
We bought a new 2024 Jayco Redhawk 24B about 7 months ago.
After a shower we noticed a water leak on the opposite wall in the bedroom area.
It only leaks when the shower is on so figuring it was the faucet area since the water pressure is constant otherwise.
We removed and tightened everything but it continues to happen.
Strange thing the water pipes are dry when you look beneath the shower compartment.
The water is gathering at the corner towards the bedroom wall and the front of the shower.
It is not coming from the drain, or the faucet.
The water walls are dry except as the water is seeping up the walls from the collection on the floor.
It also does not do it every time we turn on the water to try to replicate it.
Then we noticed it is also leaking on the underneath off the side of the grey tank.
We took the drawers off the closet next to the bathroom to inspect from the backside and the pipes are dry so definitely not a faucet issue. The water is also not dripping from the drain but is collecting in that one corner.
Any thoughts on what this could be?
Thanks!

Sorry I think I posted in the wrong area. I will repost in the regular Class C. Not sure how to delete this post.
 
I noticed that our 2024 24b had a gap between the shower pan and the walls. To keep the possibility of the water getting behind the wall I installed a clear 100%, flexible silicone seal on all 4 sides. It is cheap fix, one small tube was enough. Just squeeze it in and use a wet finger to make it pretty. My last RV did have a leak and that was the cure for it. If it doesn't correct the issue you are only out less than $5.00 and takes out that possible leak point.
 
I have a video of where it appears to be coming from which I believe is the vent from the grey tank to roof. Funny thing is we have the grey tank valve open as we are at a full hook up.

So I do t create a new topic. I am having the same issue with a leak under the shower but can’t find a way to access the plumbing any suggestions?
 
There is an access panel in the front of the shower that should allow you see the leak. Where is the ending up? In the sleeping area or in front if the shower? Might be that the drain is loose. You need to see if it is leaking when the water is running. Dry the floor completely. Turn on the cold and put the hand held shower in a bucket. Add a gallon and turn it off. Now put dry paper towels on the floor and see if they get wet. Wait 5 minutes. If no water is seen repeat this process for the hot water. If nothing gets wet you have eliminated the shower valve and now you need to focus on the drain.
 
Plug the drain and add water to the pan, if you get a leak its the connection to the shower pan that needs to be resealed. you can do that from the top with silicone if you don't want to disassemble the plumbing. Make sure the RV is level so get better results. If no water shows up with the drain plugged you have an actual failed connection under the pan. Let me know, I have fixed tons of stuff with this process.
