Why Would Trailer Roof Vent Leak Water

Question

Question:

My vent is leaking, and this is only our 2nd camping trip. It didn’t leak our first trip when it rained but now does. Also, a red light on the vent is blinking. Please help! No fun with a bucket tokeep the floor dry.

If your Fan-Tastic Roof Vent is leaking it's going to be a sealant issue between the vent assembly and the roof of the trailer. So you'd need to have the base of the vent resealed to the roof with sealant like the part # 34427034145-1 and that will take care of the leaking issue. Where is the red blinking light exactly? Does the vent still seem to work like normal?
