Leak underneath travel trailer

I have a 2015 Wildwood KQBSS. I noticed this morning a small puddle of water underneath it. I noticed water dripping from above the underbelly insualtion, near the grey tank. I let it dry up and started my investigation. First with the shower/tub. it started dripping again underneath. Has anyone else had this issue? I am still under warranty for a few more weeks but i sold my house and am living in my Travel Trailer until i move in mid-march and i would rather not have to take my trailer in and let it sit in a shop for days/weeks if i can fix the issue myself. Any input would be appreciated.

My first question would be did you try running water from other grey water devices such as sinks that use the same tank? Might narrow down where the leak would be. I've had a leak before at the grey tank drain valve before it due to a bad gasket.

Be sure to give notice before the warranty expires if you can't fine the loose fitting that needs tightening (in other words, it's something you can fix yourself easily and it's not a big repair job).

Had same type leak, at shower drain. Strainer was missing gasket and plumbers putty wasn't holding either. Removed all fittings, shortened 2 so things would fit better with less stress. Had to work at getting strainer threads started. Bought a stainless bar sink strainer, it was bent closer to 90% and I felt it would seal better needed plumbers putty. This strainer has a grate that is easy to remove and replace. Leak fixed. Trailer still under warrantee. AL
This could be done thru cutout hole in front of shower.
