I need some advise/help, while campping last weekend the inside of the camper where the front canvas attaches to the trailer started leaking on the inside. I thought it was the canvas area, but I close up the front bunk and it was still leaking in. When I got home I did not see anything out of the ordinary on the roof.
Should I re-caulk the entire front area where there is a lip with screws holding it down that is caulked ? If so how do you do this? The roof is metal, I saw somehting called ethranbond on another site would that work?
Yes, you can use Eternabond on a metal roof, but make sure it is exactly where you want it, cause it isn't coming off once it's applied. Eternabond on metal roof

This is the first place I would check. I've had this issue twice on my HTT and both times it was a cracked sealant around a marker light. Once in the front and once in the back. Once the water gets in, it will follow the path of least resistance before leaking into the camper. On the rear, it was leaking in almost 5 feet away from the light location.
On a Coyote, you also want to check the small (4" or so) vinyl divider strips located between the bunk door and edge of the camper. These are not sealed well at all from the factory.
