Fresh water holding tanks

I have a 2005 Monaco LaPalma, where are the fresh water tank located! I am assuming one is on the right rear. I have water leaking down the back wall of the rear storage bay and I am assuming it's coming from the fresh water tank.

I don't know anything about the LaPalma, but all the tanks on my Windsor are directly behind the wet bay where the sewage and water hookups are located. There is an access door on the passenger side of the coach that is held closed by straps and screws underneath.

The leak could also be coming from the gray or black holding tanks!

Good luck, happy trails, and God bless!

2 suggestions on isolating the source.

1) Smell it
2) Taste it (not recommended until it passes the smell test)

Sounds crude but it works

You most likely have only one fresh water tank. Where is the fill located? It is located close to the tank. Your leak in the storage compartment could be from a tank or plumbing leak. You'll need to get eyes on the area water is coming from. Use a phone camera, mirror, etc. to try to see the leak.

It sounds more like a pipe is leaking than the water tank. The water tank on my rig is the lowest tank of them all. My bays are lined and I doubt any water could get in them from the outside.
I'm interested in what you discover.
Rick.
