Test for leak points if water has leaked into the interior.
Mark the location of any leaks. Refer to
Stationary Window Waterleak Repair
.
Water which appears at a certain place inside of the body may actually
be entering from another point.
It may be necessary to remove the following components in order to backtrack
the path of the water to the point of entry:
If the point of entry is still not found, perform the following procedures:
| • | Cover the air pressure relief valve. |
| • | Place the air control knob in position in order to use outside
air. |
| • | Turn the fan control knob to the HI position. |
| • | Run a small stream of water over the area suspected of leaking. |
| • | Check for bubbles, which indicate that air is escaping from the
interior. |
Corrective Measures
Use an air drying, flexible body sealing compound to seal the area if
the leak is around body panels. Check that the door is contacting the weatherstrip
correctly if the leak is around a door. Ensure that the weatherstrip is not
damaged and is properly seated on the opening flange. Replace the weatherstrip
if the weatherstrip is damaged.
