Can you shoot and post some pics? I'm sure we could all benefit!

Hello - here a poor photo but I'll explain: from left to right you see a pipe coming from the flex line, then elbow to another pipe, then a coupler to a pipe (with the hanger) to another elbow.

The leak is on the far end of the coupler. This joint is not glued on that end. Glue is visible on all the other joints, including the near end of the coupler. I am not a plumber so I might have the language wrong.

Another way of saying it is from the hanger, go to the left 2 joints - that joint is not glued.

My question is: is there any reason not to glue the joint ??


Thanks

Assuming they are all "glue/slip" joints and there are no O-rings, everything should be glued.

We have a leak coming from the accordion door area next to kitchen slide. How do you get the door off? We have a Monaco Dynasty 2007.

Thank you!

We have a leak in kitchen sink drain behind accordion door at kitchen slide. How do we get the accordion door open?

Thanks!

I am sure someone will come along with more detailed instructions but I can give you a brief start. Assuming it is of similar construction to our 2001, you can remove all the stuff you have stored under the sink, remove the lift-out flooring and then remove the vertical panels on the left side of that space. The accordion door on mine is attached by a couple of cables with harbinger type fasteners that can be opened and then the door can be rolled open. All this with the slide in the OUT position of course.

Be sure to take note of how everything is routed and supported before taking stuff apart. A few close up pics are recommended. Good luck, it ain't rocket science but is a pain due to space constraints.

Did not realize the floor could be removed. Thank you. We will give it a try!

Should be "finger-holes" in the plywood to lift it with. Might be covered with carpet but if you poke around a bit, you'll find them.
