Low water pressure/water leak

Hello folks, as some of you may have read I am experiencing low water pressure as of late. I change out the check valve on the city water connection, changed out the water pump and nothing changed.

Well as I was getting good for the dogs under the camper in the 5th wheel part I noticed dripping water. So I pulled down on the plastic framing around 5th wheel and out poured water.

I then went inside and looked all around the bed room area for water and found nothing. I then looked where the hidden safe if and boom! WATER!

So my question is, how the bloody hell do I get to the water lines that run in that area?!

Should not be lines in that area. Maybe a roof leak ???

That would be just what I need on top of this water pressure issue.

The GK doesn't have any water lines under the bed so it's not there. The closest water supply would be the sink in the bedroom. I would start looking at that supply line.

Take a look on the other forum. TNT Baker is having the same problem in the cold weather, seems to be a condensation issue inside the front cap.
It's an ongoing thread with everyone offering suggestions but the best one so far seems to be drilling a couple of vent/drain holes.

As mentioned, there are no water lines up there.

Just seemed to be more water than what could be condensation. I will check out the inlet lines tomorrow after work hopefully and see what I can see. Seems every winter there is a water issue with this rig, even though I have taken every precaution to ensure no problems should occur.
