How do we find the cause of the leak in the roof of our RV (travel trailer) & fix it?

The vehicle in question is a 2000 Travel Lite, which we bought "as-is". This seems to be a new leak, though. We thought we found the source (a missing vent pipe cap), but it is still leaking. The roof seals around all the vents & AC unit & antenna all LOOK good. Any seasoned RV owners out there who can advise us?

    Try checking for small crack (specially if it already accumulated rust) and point of joints (like straps, srew holes... things like that). And, most specially check the condensation of the AC unit. Usually excessive 'sweating' of AC means that it needs a general cleaning. Also don't forget to check the insulators. It might need replacement too.

    Happy motoring!
