# Water damage, do you know what to do if water leaks through your rooftop AC?

## What to do about condensation leaks or other water intrusion issues with your Rooftop AC

### Symptoms include: Water dripping through the unit, visible damage to the display, jumping temperature/mode, or other random behavior:

**Display panel** is damaged by **water intrusion/leak**. Replace the display panel.

- [Follow this video to remove the Display panel:](https://youtube.com/shorts/_7dwx0Ktgt0?feature=share)

- [Follow this video to reroute the wiring to prevent future water intrusion:](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0l1tkwEwcJM)
- Also, double-check the "Condensation Water dripping inside" down below

**\*\*\*OLD MODELS ONLY\*\*\*** Verify that the wires shown below **are routed as shown** and have **sealant as shown**: (**if not,** any exterior, silicon-based caulk or sealant **needs to be used to prevent further damage**) ![1777503316750](https://help.velitcamping.com/hs-fs/hubfs/1777503316750.jpg?width=670&height=264&name=1777503316750.jpg)

 

If the leak persists, and this was on a self-install, verify that the installation was done as shown. You can also reapply the sealant around the opening by removing the unit from the      roof and redoing **step 3.2
