Question 2008 35L4QB Rear Slide Leak

Looking for a little help folks. Whenever it rains the carpet of the right rear slide gets wet. The roof of the slide and of the camper has been checked and rechecked. No water stains anywhwere. The only evidence of a leak is the very wet carpet. My latest theory is that the water that should be running out is somehow being blocked and pooling out onto the carpet. Any thoughts will be appreciated. My RV mechanic and I are running out of ideas, and I'm worried that the carpet and floor will be permanently damaged if I don't stop this leak soon. Thanks in advance for your help. Hope to hear from someone soon.

Is the wet carpet in the slide itself or beside the slide at the corner? Could be a bad seal. Water test with a garden hose one section at a time. Did your rv tech not water test your unit?

When your slide is out make sure there are no folds on rubber seal against the side wall of slide. If thats ok check bottom of slide where seal rests against the bottom of slide you may need a bead of caulk at this point where water will ride on trim of slide into back of trim of fascia than on rug.
