04 Sunrise rear slide fluid leak

We have a 04 Sunrise 36' coach that has started leaking some fluid into the compartment below the rear slide.

I tried to find the source with no sucess as I cannot even find the hydraulic ram! I tried looking from underneath the coach with no luck. I tried looking from above through the access panels and no cylinder visable.

How do you get to vies the cylinder and hoses? The amount of fluid is small but obviously maybe the start of a real problem.

Are you sure you have hydraulic slides? Ours are moved via electric motors and screw drives. The motor and drives can be accessed under our bed for the bedroom slide, just tilt the bed up and the access panel underneath can be taken out which allows access to the motor and drive mechanism. I wonder if the fluid you are seeing is not hydraulic fluid and is something else, maybe off the roof or from leaky plumbing?

Yes the slide is hydraulic. The fluid is slightly pink. I did remove the access panels under the bed and the only thing visible is adjustment for the slide!
