Two issues

Two issues maybe someone can help with

1. I was draining my fresh water tank. I turned the two valves open and water only comes out of one of the two white tubes. I'm guessing one is too drain the tank and the other is to vent or for overflow?

2. The panel that shows what percent of the tank is full is not reading correctly. It shows that the fresh water and grey tank are the same. Even after emptying the grey tank. Also when flushing out the black tank it showed 0 even as I was adding water to flush

Jkreis,

1. I have the 27' TB but I think all of the fresh water tanks use a single valve for draining. On mine, it is between the wheels on the street side. Drains from the center of the tank. You may be looking at the low point drains.

2. You may have an intermittent connection somewhere in the sensor system or the sensors are not adhered to the tanks properly. I don't know if my system registers anything during the black tank flush, I only run it based on time. If it doesn't straighten out on its own, add this to the punch list for warranty work. This system is much better than the older version that used in-tank sensors. I did notice that if you scroll through the buttons quickly, you can get goofy readings sometimes.

Spring is here!

Welcome Aboard....👍

The AS tanks do not have constant level sensors like your TV fuel gauge, each tank has several sensors mounted on the outside of the tank...result, multi gallon variance between readings.

There's a "low point" drain but there is usually a fresh water tank drain as well. Look around your tank.
