While cleaning the rear window on our 06 CF29CK 5th wheel we noticed water laying in the bottom of the window. This is one of the windows that does not open (solid glass) and actually it was so full of water that some of it had ran down on the carpet. We have had lots and lots of rain the past two weeks.



On closer inspection I determined the weep holes that are at the bottom of every window frame on the outside were plugged on this window. I think this was allowing the channel on the outside to fill up, leak thru the seal and then accumulate on the inside of the frame, fill up and then overflow. I cleaned out the weep holes, checked all the others and will wait to see if I have more problems.



Anyone else have this problem??

I had the same problem on our 30SK. The caulk between the window and frame separated and allowed water to seep in. If you pull out the black trim around the window you will see that the glass is pressed into a bead of caulk that is run around the metal frame. I removed the glass, cleaned out the oldand put in new caulk, haven't had a problem since.

Had the same problem on my 30sk also. Took it to the dealer and they said that the caulk had come lose. They re-caulked it, hope that fixed the problem.
