Water in basement

We recently travelled the I5 from Canada to California in constant rain and snow, really bad conditions. Everything in the basement got wet. We had some seepage through the doors but it seems the most water travelled along the frame beams. I lit up the basement with lights this evening and looked for light escaping but to no avail. Any suggestions or experience with this?

Is it possible your toilet/stool is leaking at the base or valve?

What about trying smoke? There may be enough turns that light will not shine through.

If you have slides , look where track for the slides take them in and out you will find they do not seal tight. I don't get water in the basement with slides out but with slides in water runs down the side then follows in where the slide tracks. I have 4 slides and it happens on the 2 front slides. Look under your slides when they are out and you will see what I am talking about.

I took things apart yesterday on the DS slide and I believe you are correct. I could see where water travelled on top of the slide cover over to the beam and dripped down. I now need to figure out how to fix it?
Thanks for the tip.
