Tank monitor question
We have been in our 99 Jayco 243 for two weeks now. Ive had to learn a lot of lessons so far. One is double checking the slide locks are out before extending the slider, the other is making sure the tail gate is down before pulling away from the 5ver.
So a few days ago, i thought to myself, it sure would be nice to know if the holding tanks are full or not. Maybe have some kind of monitor or sight glass.
Well low and behold, this whole time, theres a monitor on the wall under the kitchen cabinet!!!
So, ive been messin with this thing, since the owners manual is no help, and it shows, i believe, that i have more tanks than i thought i did.
I knew i had a fresh, a grey and a black tank, but the panel also shows "galley."
Im assuming that is the pipe with a blade valve coming from the area near the fresh water tank which is under the kitchen area.
So, ive emptied all the valves, starting with black, then grey, then the unlabeled blade valve. And afterwards, i get readings of fresh=empty, black=full, grey=half, and galley=full.
Im sure the fresh tank is close to empty, havent used it yet, been on city water the whole time. But the others should read empty. So im not sure what to do about the grey and galley, im pretty sure i need to dump ice and chemicals in the black tank for the hour ride to the next campground.
