Hey Phil, I don't know if I mentioned it in my private message but I thought I should add it here. If you have those 2" clearance lights that fit into a black rubber grommet, get rid of them. United used them in my coach. I noticed the paint bubbling on the aluminum sheet under the cab overhang. I asked them about it (they were still in business at that time) and they told me those clearance lights allow water into the walls. Turns out water was pooling on top of that bottom panel and percolating down through it. They said when they figured out they were a problem they switched to a surface mount type light. Too late for me, and you too since yours was built slightly before mine.
Here's the original light:
