hiltonjug is correct with his answer but if the weather stripping just wont seal or is bad the cheapest fix is to install some 3/8" shims about 2" wide under the roof and on top of the vent frame to raise the unit and stop the water from pooling under the unit. The drain hole on the pan is derectly behind the seal and if there is a depression from the ac it will collect around it and eventually drip inside the ceiling assembly.
There is a bolt on each corner that tighten from the inside. You will see them when you remove the inside cover. There should be foam weather stripping around the opening that the unit sits on and then it's tightened up.

I built a 70W solar panel. The cells are housed in a wood frame and topped with plexiglass put down with a bead of silicone to seal all tight. One only 1/4" drain hole on back underside to drain moisture, and permit air to get in or out due to thermal expansion and contraction. On hot sunny day, the cells heat up as they work, and create a significant amount of condensate on the inside of the plexi. Perhaps I need a lesser amount of "air" indside the panel box, and I'm considering sandwiching the solar cells between 2 sheets of glass with no drain. Do solar cells need room to breathe?

We just bought a 1996 motorhome that has the solar panel on top of the ac unit but someone has clipped the wires in air return and removed the Solar Monitor light assembly. I have good voltage coming from panel but need this unit to go between panel wires and battery wires. Where can I get this assembly or does anyone know where I can get a part number for it. Thanks
