    No level LEDs for water tanks

    Checking out my '16 371REBH after sitting for 9 months and find my LEDs for tank levels are all dead. Not even the empty led works. All worked last time we used it, although the black tank showed 1/2 full all the time. Can anyone give me some pointers on where to start checking? I don't...

    Freshwater tank not delivering water until full

    I have a 2014 Cedar Creek 34 RLS 5th wheel. The water works fine when hooked up to Campground water, but trying to get water out of the freshwater tank is a problem. I cannot get the pump to pick up water until the tank is virtually full. In my mind I believe the fill line in the tank is no...

    2 lines to fresh water tank, which one to use for 4 way valve

    My trailer came with a city water inlet and a fresh water fill inlet. It also has a valve for winterizing (sucking from the bottle instead of the tank). I bought this 4 way valve to simplify things: Everything is pretty straight forward to hook up except I have 2 hoses going to the fresh...

    We have a 2015 Georgetown 270SSF. I'd like to add a new bulkhead fitting to the top of the freshwater tank so we can add water by gravity. Is there a way to do this without access to the inside of the tank? Maybe a wide flanged fitting held in place with screws plus Solvent weld? Also, it's...

    Suburban Hot Water Tank

    Hello. On our 2021, Rockwood 2511S, the Suburban Hot water tank started making a high pitch whistling type sound, sounding like a boiling whistling kettle when heating up and only while on electric. When on gas, no noise to be heard. We have been out on a few trips before and had not noticed...

    Fresh water tank crack

    I have been watching this forum for a couple of years now and have used some of the information available. I had seen several post about the minilite's fresh water falling out. From a picture of one frame that had twisted I noticed that my frame was the same type, so I added support to the tank...

    I have a real frustrating problem. Have a brand new 2021 Greywolf 23DBH that I picked up just last month. We’ve only taken it out on one 4 day trip to a site with no water hookup, so we used the holding tank and it worked great. Right now I have it in my driveway hooked up to city water. The...

    Black Water Tank

    Hey all, I have an R-Pod 179. Last trip I emptied the black and gray tanks. Even had time to flush the black tank. Getting ready for my next trip I check the panel inside and it says my black tank is 3/4 full! Any ideas? Bad sensor? The last dump site wasn't level?

    Fresh water tank shrunk ?

    Our 5th wheel has a fresh water tank with approx. 52 gal. For some time now only approx. 32 gal can be filled, then the tank overflows. I suspect the tank has contracted. I don't understand why, because the ventilation is fine. Who has an idea how to regain the full capacity of the tank...
