Amos, if you have a humidity meter, use it to test for moisture in the wall board in a inconspicuous area. If there is moisture after a rain, then you have a leak.
Do you have the manual on your steps? If so you have every thing you need to work on it on a bench. You will need to simulate the various power circuits and switches for testing. Good luck and keep us posted.

Welcome amoose to irv2.
Heres a Link to kwikwee steps with many models.
Leaks around the windows can be a pain you may have to pull and place new ribbon sealant or if top looks dried out remove old sealant and dress around frame with new.
I'd use a caulking gun to force under frame.
