Water Leak

[obrien524]

I have a 2005 Express 330 and noticed water leaking from the seam just above the floor (1inch up lower left) inside the head door. Looked at the fresh water schematic and the only water line that seems to be in that area may be the windshield washer line, but I'm not sure. Anyone ever have this issue before?

Could be coming from rain leaking at some deck hardware attachment points or the windshield washer lines. If you depressurize the fresh water system and the leak stops, that tells you something. On my 2007, the windshield washer valve is near the helm and there shouldn't be any pressurized water above the head. If not, must be outside source and running down from the deck/windshield, hatches, etc.

Thanks. Yes when I depressurize, then the leak stops. Head sink lines are dry that’s why I’m thinking the only water line would be the windshield washer....frustrating

It seems common for the windshield washer fitting itself to break off and leak from there - when that happened to me, water was raining down on me from the headliner though.

Maybe the better question is - if you turn on the windshield washer valve, what happens?

After some digging I actually don't think there's any plumbing that goes higher than waist height EXCEPT the windshield washer hose (which is all downstream of the windshield washer valve).

Thank you. I thought that if there was leak from windshield washer it would leak from there but the line could leak anywhere from there....very frustrating. Thanks again
