I M in KS Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 On 2 recent trips, I have filled the fresh tank from city water, probably 3 or 4 times. The monitor only reads 19 and then jumps to 38 & never goes higher. I fill it till over flowing, an it has been filled on relatively level ground or tongue down. I really don't recall if it worked well or differently before paying attention these times. Any idea what could be the cause? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gliddenwoods Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 I have given up. The monitors never give accurate data and I have accepted that as fact. 3 2022 Oliver Legacy Elite II, Hull 1242, 9/26/22 Lithium Platinum Power/Solar Package Tow with Supercrew Cab 2019 F-150 4 x4, 5.0L 4-Valve V8 with 3.73 axle ratio & 157" wheelbase.

These external sensors are some better than in other RVs. We just know how many days the gray and black will last and have extra fresh tank in the TV. We don’t use the readout.

Like those who posted above, we have learned that our fresh, gray and black tank sensors are terribly inaccurate. Our fresh tank sensor, for example, reads 68% when the tank is overflowing (and therefore clearly full) with the trailer level. 1 Hull #1291 Central Idaho 2022 Elite II Tow Vehicle: 2019 Tundra Double Cab 4x4, 5.7L with tow package Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here - our fresh tank sensor never reads >94%... We use the readouts as just a "ballpark" sense of the condition of each of the 3 tanks - for that, they're fine for us.

John Dorrer Posted yesterday at 12:30 PM Share Posted yesterday at 12:30 PM Our fresh tank maxes out at 88%. I always overflow the tank and still 88%. Gray tank monitor was replaced under warranty. I just add 12% when looking at the fresh tank monitor. 1 John & Susan Dorrer, 2013 F250, 6.2 gasser, 4x4, 2022 Legacy Elite 2, twin beds, Hull #1045, Jolli Olli - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
