Hi Bruce I wonder if removing the wood rail would reveal access to the nuts that are covered by the head liner? The wood strip could be viewed as a handhold or to shield the light but might just be to cover an access hole …

Hello all, I saw a while back that Josh Muckley had taken off and rebedded his port side Genoa track, and had tightened the port side, in both cases eliminating leaks. I have a slight leak as well, and tried some Captain Tolley's in the short term, and it helped but did not eliminate the issue. I'd like to deal with it more permanently. The issue is, I cannot seem to find where to access any of the nuts on the underside. I've looked in the cabinets, etc. Included are links to a couple photos. In the last photo, you can see where the track is mounted immediately outside the fixed port, and from there, looking at the inside you can see where, if the nuts were going to be accessible, they should be immediately behind the wood "rail" that shields the small light above the fridge.

I could try simply tightening them from the top, but I'd be concerned about spinning the nut on the underside and tearing up the sealant that is there, making the leak worse.
