To do this, let water range from the faucet into the sink. Ensure you have a container placed to catch water. Shine a flashlight onto the pipes, and wrap a paper towel around each one to identify the area of the leakage. Next, tighten the couplings in the drainpipe with the leak. If this does not resolve the problem, attempt cleaning the pipeline threads and changing the gasket.
