Can i get at this by taking a wall down in the basement? ?I've got a leak. It isn't where the hoses fit into the valves. It seems to be behind the panel. It's not bad, but its wet the floor. The question is before i unstack the dryer and pull the washer out, rake off the wooden panel, whats back there? What would be dripping??
While I will never put a washer in the Sundance, I do turn the washer water off after each use at the ranch. Had a buddy leave for 2 weeks from his Amarillo home...came back to water running out into the street...washer hose broke and flooded his home....His water bill was over a $1,000 not to mention his home had to be gutted...
I turn the water off ever since that experience was shared..

You have to unscrew the plastic molded frame that holds the washer faucet on. Pull up and out and the pex is exposed. As mentioned above it could be your washer drain at the trap. So yes you have to remove the washer and dryer. A bit of a pain but not so bad a job.
I also remember an access panel at the bottom that is screwed as well.

You might want to get your vin number and call the factory since they know exactly what is behind the wall, but could it be that the leak is inside of the washer??
At least in my rig (3010RE) there is a false wall. I took that out and moved services around to the side wall. Gives more room front to back of washer.
I had had that same drip after installing my washer. What I found was the brass valve HL used had a nub on it that kept the water connection from being able to be turned tight enough to seal. That nub made me think it was tight when the hose fitting was just hitting the nub
solution was to double washer the fitting. This allowed the fitting to seal before I hit the nup
this was the other motivation to change the fittings and move it....while the double washer worked I did not feel there were enough threads engaged.
I just re-read you posts, and yes that is a possibility.OR is it possible that the Splendid actually leaks?

Do you have a drip pan under your washer? If not, you might want to think about that when you pull the washer out.
