Sink Leaking Elddis Autoquest Magnum GT 196

[gaulty007]

My sink has a slow leak water falls onto the top of the fridge and runs down the door seal onto the floor.
At first i thought it was the fridge but the leak stopped after not using the sink.
I think it could be the waste pipe attached to the sink so i need to lift the sink up to get to it.
Can anyone give some guidance on removing the sink. Thanks

I have a cupboard under the sink in our Autoquest 175, so I had a look under our sink which is the same as yours and there are no fixings clamping the sink down, so I assume that the sink is either bonded in with silicone or their could be some screws under the rubber seal around the edge of the sink.
If it is bonded in with silicone and you chose to run a blade around your sink to release it, bare in mind that there may not be enough slack on the waste pipe to allow your to raise the sink enough to get to the waste pipe and you may even pull it off completely.
Is there any access to the waste by taking the draws out of the unit next to your fridge, if not can yo cut an access hole as any hole you cut will not show with the draws back in.
As a last resort it would be fridge out.

Our Elddis accordo sink waste pipe fittings were upside down, on both sinks! They were obviously going to leak, if only the employee had half a brain cell. Still I suppose they're not paid to think

Thanks for your help Paul & Yvette and Richard and Ann, I took the glass cover off the sink and the rubber feet T
which the glass sits on. This revealed 3 screws which when removed allowed the sink to be lifted out, i sealed the waste pipe to the drain elbow fitting and cured the problem.
