I have had a wet floor issue that I have determined is caused by a leak in the fresh water piping system. I have the wet bath, with the water tank on the curb side of the rear bed, and the water pump at the very rear of this compartment.
With the carpet pulled up, the fake floor removed, I am trying to find where the water lines cross to the kitchen side of the coach. The leak is clearly coming from the kitchen side as water surfaces on the plywood floor outside the compressor "room". If I want the leak to stop, I merely turn off the pump. I am assuming the pipes cross over in that area but I think I might have to remove the compressor and the bulkhead in that cabinet to see what gives.
Any ideas? I am also assuming that the plywood I walk on is the upper part of a "sandwich" with the piping inside that sandwich. Is that correct.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Gene
I know I have nagged you about this before, but it IS important.
Your very helpful album is virtually INVISIBLE.
There in no way for it to be found by any search engine unless one searches
for the word "slide".
There must be searchable keywords used within the photo name, title, or
description to search for.
Album names are not searchable.
I hope that some of these McD mornings you will devote some time to editing
your photos to include descriptive titles and /or descriptions.
Thank you from myself and every other GMCer for always sharing your hard
found knowledge and well created presentations.
You, Gene, are not the only perpetrator, ... but you are the easiest to
pick on. :-)

Gene, your suggestion was right on "spot on". I am going to attempt to replace that white fitting with an elbow and get rid of the city water. Thanks.
