Tank gages Pleasure Way Pursuit

[jjson775]

The fresh and grey water gages on our PW Pursuit aren't reading correctly. The RV is one year old. First, the fresh water gage showed only 65% full right after filling the tank. Now the grey water gage is showing nearly full right after dumping. Black water gage is OK so far. Has anyone else had this experience and if so, how can you fix it? I will appreciate any feedback.

We have a Tech-Edge tank monitoring system with no internal probes. I talked to their tech support people today. The system can be re-calibrated. Hope I can fix it when I take the RV back out of storage in a few weeks for our next trip.

I am not surprised with these answers. Our old RV, a Pleasure Way true class B had water gages that registered levels in 1/3 increments only. We traveled in it for 8 years and they worked until the day we sold it. The gages on the Pursuit show percentages - at least they used to. I am disappointed with the gages in our almost new RV.

What 2oldman is getting at, is "yes". Those gauges are notoriously inaccurate and problematic.

If your warranty is still active, then go back for service. Otherwise, from what I've read, replacing them can be really expensive.

My freshwater indicator works perfectly - I have confirmed it by looking at the tank level directly at times (it's under the bed).

The black and grey usually do - about 80% of the time. I can check the black directly with a flashlight looking into the toilet bowl. Since we've switched over to a different black tank additive, the problems have been pretty minor.

However, our sensors are not in the tanks .... they sense the liquid level right through the wall of each tank.

Wow, I thought everybody's sensors worked just fine. First time I've seen this question.

Play nice. 🙂

I have never had a trailer with tank sensors that worked properly. I have had 4 different trailers. I just live with it and watch them. My previous trailer I could see down the throat of the toilet and see tank level but the one I have now curves and can not see down but just learned over time when I need to dump.The only one thats works good is the fresh water tank.
