Weird empty bar or box above top menu

There's a strange empty box or white bar that appears above my header menu on desktop and I can't seem to figure out how to get rid of it.
Any ideas?
Hi there,
Can you do this first so I can take a closer look?

Just cleared and disabled my caching plugin Leo.
Thanks!
I'm seeing this CSS that's causing the issue:
.menu {
background: #fff;
border: 1px solid #c0ccda;
border-radius: 3px;
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
max-width: 100vw;
min-width: 100%;
padding: calc(.5rem - 1px) 0;
}
If you didn't add that then try disabling all plugins except GP Premium.
Thanks Leo.
I wonder if it could be Elementor doing that. It doesn't show on every page.
If I turn off Elementor temporarily will I permanently lose my designs or will they come back once I turn the plugin back on? Sorry if that's beyond your scope, I just don't want to break anything while trying to get rid of that bar.
The CSS is coming from Send In Blue - not something you can edit as its coming from another server. You may want to report it to them as its bad practice for them to install very generic CSS - it should be specific to their code requirements
Try adding this CSS to overwrite it:
.main-navigation ul.menu {
border: none;
padding: 0;
width: unset;
max-width: unset;
}
Not required now but in regards to disabling Elementor - you won't lose anything by disabling it and re-enabling it.
Thank you David, huge help! I appreciate you tracking down the source of the code.
You're welcome
