Leak from behind shower panel into the pan?
Just found my Reflection 230RL shower has a leak that appears to be coming from behind the shower panel and into the pan. Do you think this is the shower valves as it is on that side? What do I need to do if I pull the valves out? How do I tighten? Isn't it PEX line? I never worked with PEX.

More than likely and a common problem. You may have vinyl tube to the shower, which is a problem because of the mismatch to fittings. After you open it up, some pictures will allows us to help you with it.

Does the water leak all the time, just when you're showering, or just when you use The backflow prevention valve for the black tank flush is likely back there with the shower valves, too. It's a frequent failure point - and will leak more water than loose fittings on the back of the shower valves. There should be a panel to access the back side of the shower wall. Open that up and take a good look. The attachments to the shower valve(s) and the backflow preventer should all be screw-on.

The panel with the sewer valves and water connections point are not by the shower. The backside of the shower is the bedroom closet. I will open up and take some photos. Water slowly seeps between the shower pan and shower wall joint when the RV water main spigot is pressurized.
