2015 Stealth 1913 LEAK

Hi all, new to the forums and hoping for help...took the new TH to the dunes and dry camped, pulled up to the fresh water hook up, started filling it and TH started leaking under the hook up but at very bottom where the frame is. It was only for like 4 or 5 min and stopped(enclosed underbelly so couldnt pin point the leak)...also is propane needed to be on to get hot water and heater to work? Newbie lol. I will try to attach a pic of the leak...kinda blurry but the frame is in the center of pic

Can't help with the water leak, but the water heater and furnace both require propane when dry camping. Welcome to the forums! There is a lot of good information here!

See if you can find where the leak is coming from. Most likely a hose clamp loose.

leaking while filling is generally the fill hose. the corrogated pipe they use is hard to clamp. the accepted way to seal this is to goop 100% silicone on the fitting and then clamp. most other sealants impart taste. you might see what the dealer has in mind for warranty.
