Water in front trunk

[msbluebells]

Hi! We are hauling our 2014 Rt limited to Florida and discovered about 2 inches of water in the front trunk. Very unusual as we rode about 10k miles last year and no problem. The front trunk was securely latched and rubber grommet seemed in place. Any ideas or experience with the problem. Thanks much!! Keep warm

Same problem in my 2014 RTS...

The battery access panel was reinstalled incorrectly or the fuse box access covers came loose or not reinstalled correctly.

Thanks .... Will check battery access panel

We think that is the problem! We were trickle charging over the winter and probably did not reseat the battery cover before the Florida haul. Will check at the next rest stop. Thanks again. This forum has given us some fantastic help. Florida here we come.:yes:

We had a customer with the same issue you are having. He had his charger wiring running up and over his seal to have easy access. This in turn did not allow his lid to seal properly when he closed it, allowing water to infiltrate his compartment.

Thanks for this post, i just added some LEDs and forgot to seal the opening in the frunk. Just corrected that. :thumbup::thumbup:
