fresh water sensor

[jareddustin]

our TH is not even 2 years old yet, it sat for about 6 months, we had too much going on to go out. now my fresh water sensor will only read empty. my black does the same too, after a weekend trip with 4 people i thought it was at least go up to 1/3. grey seams to be working just fine.
is there something easy to check that might fix the problem so i dont have to take it to the dealer?

typically the sensors on most RV's are junk. I had the same issue then I came across these Horst sensors, all you have to do is replace the sensor into the existing hole and everything works like it should from the factory. I replaced my Black and grey sensors, but I haven't yet replaced the fresh water sensors. Black/grey work great now!

If all else fails consider getting a SeeLevel system

On the fresh, check for a loose wire... my fresh tank has the "sensors" pre installed, but not wired up - the sensors are just stainless steel screws through the side of the tank, four of them in a diagonal line up the side.

in the black, debris is notorious for fouling the sensors, a spray wand might dislodge debris temporarily but it'll foul up again soon enough.

thank you! ill try and get under there when i get home from work. hopefully i can figure it out quick before i need to take it back to storage
