Water seeping under bathroom wall (1 Viewer)

Aye that would do Brian but I was thinking of a hand saw, Floorboard saw.

Sorry, that picture came out wrong, I can't see a wire.


Seriously, the advantage of the plunge saw is you can very accurately cut to a fixed depth.

We have a 130 and we have had a leak at back of fridge, seems the cold pipe had came away from the tap due to possible frost, the tap has a pin which needs extracting and then push the hose connections firmly back into the tap base and push the pin back in to secure the hoses, this is to stop the taps from exploding due to frost it just blows the connections off, your issue could be quite similar ?

Have you contacted the previous owner, he might be able to help if this has occurred before or he could have an opinion as to what might be the cause

Update on Elddis Niagra
Got panel off today and seems to be connector onto hot tap that was leaking with some gusto! pushed pipe back in and now I only have a drip. Pump is not running when system full unless I turn the tap on. YEEHAAAA.
Now, would like to get panel out completely and replace the connectors on the hot and cold to be double sure also the small waste from the tip up sink that empties the trough that the sink tips up into, (if you are still awake) drips badly so I need to seal that.
Question is???? most important, how do I remove the toilet roll holder!! failed miserably today. I have to remove this to lift the rear panel out, we're back to the putting the roof on last syndrome mentioned earlier...
Then, its wet suit off, clothes back on and maybe another small break to test, Canoe and wet suit on standby of course!!
A big thank you to all those people who have helped and been so welcoming. Its worth buying a motor home just for this forum, thanks again to all.

probably just a loose hose connection.

Toilet roll holder could be held on by a small grub screw on each end at the bottom. Undo screw, pull lower end towards you gently and lift upwards off of brackets.

Fear is the biggest problem with most of these jobs, when you get stuck in they are doable, lets face it, they aren't space rockets.

I might be forced to join you in a whisky to celebrate.

 

[TUCANO]

[Scout]

could be worse, bike could have a flat or buckeds wheel, no power from that

@Rooky Vanner You should change your name to Percy-Verance!

Well done you. I remember reading your first post and thinking, "Poor sod!"

Not ONLY have you fixed it all, but with humour and keeping us entertained too. You've also given us the final outcome, which is more than some do!

Happy (dry) travels and tell that missus of yours to pedal harder
