Status Aerial
The Status aerial, located on the nearside looked like it had been sealed with silicone sealant, just a matter of time before it let the water in.

Location of the TV aerial.
|
Looks like it is sealed with silicone.
|
Screwed to the top of the van with 4 screws.
|
|
Came away easily with a rub of my finger, took out the screws.
|
To reveal, not sealed properly. Cleaned the area, then drew around the base with a pencil.
|
Applied 19mm strip sealant up to the line.
|
|
Screwed base down, put some Seamseal on the screw heads.
|
Then 2 grub screws to secure the top.
|
Don't have to worry about that any more.

The Status aerial, had indeed only been installed with silicone sealant and there were a couple of drops of water under it, the previous owner had done it as an upgrade. Good job I checked it, it was only a matter of time before it would become a problem area.
