2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission water leaking in

[RolandJ]

i got in my truck today in the rain an was driving and saw a water drop fall. it dripped out under the overhead computer. Anone know where it might be coming from or what i mite need to fix... . any help would be appreciated.

it may be from the amber marker lights on the roof

if you don't have them check aux stop light on the top back of the cab they need some caulk some times

good luck

Put a dab of silicone caulk on each of the screws holding the light covers on. My seals were good, but leaked where the screws went through the cab roof. When I did the dab of caulk on the screws, no more leak.

when you say dab it with silicone do u mean over the head or back the screw out and put it on .

i backed my screws out and put a dab under the head. there is a tinyplastic washer that cracks or goes out of shape under the screw head. so thats why i dabed under the screw head. Do not over tighten very easy to strip out the plastic in sert

do you def think its that or could a lense be cracked, i guess thats an easy fix for starters. Maybe if it ever stops raining here ill try tht out... .

Well, could be a cracked lense. and as said before the third brake light lense will leak also. i had that happen also, but when the third brake light leaked my passanger floor was wet:{ so try eastest and cheapest first and go from there
