2022 Travato 59KL Mystery Thing on Roof

[Jim202259KL]

On the roof of my 2022 Travato 59KL there is a small black block (about 1 inch square and about 1/2 inch above the roof line) surrounded by black sealant. It is on the driver side about four inches behind the top of the windshield, about 6 inches in from the side of the van. No photo because it's all black and I can't get any distinctive features to show. What is it? I'm posting here because I am guessing it has something to do with electronics, electric, antenna, or a sensor (it clearly isn't anything that fits into the other forums). It's not the pre-installed cable/wire entry point as that is much further back on the roof above the "electronics" cabinet on the passenger side. And it's definitely something Winnebago installed as the black sealant matches what was used for the other stuff on the roof.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jim

Aha. Didn't even think of that. Many thanks.

And if you have a new RV, there are plenty of little funny things to locate or ask about!

This is one site I love as it lets me look over the RV without having to break a sweat crawling around!

https://catalog3d.winnebagoind.com/menu/Parts.htm

Interactive and takes a bit to learn how to "drive" but seeing through walls to find things is better than crawling and still not knowing the "official" name of things!
It lets me see where those tanks set and water lines run??

Or maybe you want to know what's behind the shower faucet?

I've been to that site. I couldn't find what turns out to be the Sirius XM antenna. Went back to look again, and even on the wiring schematic where the AM/FM antenna input is tracked, nothing I could find for the Sirius XM antenna. There was something else I looked for a few months ago and couldn't find (a plumbing schematic would be helpful, along with the layout of all the tv cable wiring). But it is a good site for what it does offer. Thanks.

Yes, you mention one of the less well supported parts in the COAX. There is a pretty complete site for the plumbing on the things I have looked for here:

I often have to look at the parts to find the things I find on the plumbing diagrams! I was trying to sort out where a plumbing leak was most likely to be and having a good idea of where the joints in the pipe were was a big help. Since water runs downhill but may take a weird path to get there, tipping the RV one way or another made the water show up in different places!
I was glad it was not a big leak! The first place it showed up was in front of the couch and I was pretty sure the couch did not leak!!

Fortunately some of the pipes and joints are visible (e.g., behind the panel in the bathroom, and under the bed next to the sink). But other pipes and joints are almost impossible to get to if they need to be fixed.
