Exactly, but it is full. There is so little space in the top of the tank, I think the little which would top it off to be offsetting the problem. I can be driving down or up I 75 or 95 and the alarm will go off. It runs its course then shuts off only to do it again during the same leg of the trip. Email to PowerGear referred me to the dealer who said PowerGear has no clue what is causing this who . . . .and so on.

You really do have to fill it till it overflows, NO space at all at the top or relocate the sensor in the tank to a lower position. PowerGear really ought to fix this or maybe Winnebago mounts the tank too far forward so that it is more susceptible to level changes of the coach. I had the same issue until I called my dealer who suggested the overfill technique. Believe me, it works. If you don't have a small oil spot on the ground right under the tank wherever you park, it's not full enough and the alarm will occasionally go off as the MH dives forward on stops or pitches to the side turning.
