Subject:Water tank level gauge on '91 Westfalia
From:gneiss9
Date:Sat, 22 May 2010 20:33:15 -0600

Hey everyone,

Has anyone run into the following problem?  The float moves freely
within the tank but doesn't register anything other than green (100%
full).  Over the winter I lengthened my pump hose (so that the pump
would sit flat within the tank and not leave any water un-useable)
but other than that I've not modified anything else in the water
system.  The float was sitting at the bottom of the empty tank last
time I had it open (with green light illuminated on the gauge).

There is however, a possibility that I've got other wiring issues at
my aux battery that may be affecting this problem;  I've still not
had time to diagnose my battery drain problem with the aux batt
installation.  That's my only other problem source that I can figure...

Any ideas or experience in this issues is appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Sincerely,

Trevor Reynolds
