My wife and I purchased our 2000 UA 40J 3 years ago and have had just a few minor problems but now we see water dripping from a drain line on the passenger side about 3 feet in front of the rear axel just below the side turn single does anyone have any idea on this problem as we have never seen any water dripping from this hose in the last three years.

Assuming your 40J is just like my 40J........
The "hose" you see is actually a water drain valve. If the water is coming OUT of the valve then rep0lace the valve. If it's draining down the OUTSIDE of the valve then take a close look at your water pump. The same symptom on my 40J turned out to be the water pump and it was easily replaced.

Thanks for info but we discovered it's our Ice maker in fridge don't know why but it leaks when we make ice as we haven't used the ice maker as it used to leak water on the floor so about a year ago we just didn't use it.

Looks like the bar came down when we were traveling and it started to make ice but a small drip out of this pipe under the MH.

If your icemaker needs to be replaced your can use the following unit. Sav the plug from your old one to splice onto the new one. Exactly the same unit. I bought one in Sept of '10 for the price below so they may be a little more now.
