Calibration (1 Viewer)

Calibration is not working trying too calibrate my water tank and waste tank I have 0.03v on fresh water tank and the waste is 0.00v and I have put a new prob in the fresh water tank but with no joy has any one else had this problem any help would be appreciated

Sadly water tank measuring seems very hit and miss. Waste tank even worse with detritus generating false readings.

Hi there and welcome.

Tank levels are so hit and miss I take them as just a guide.
Good luck with the calibration Joe you can get it sorted.

Mopeka ultrasonic device seems to be the only reliable measure apart from a sight glass like you get on an oil tank

I never look at mine, because I know they will be wrong...

but no big deal, just fill up with fresh when empty .. and top up before leaving the site

empty grey waste when full ... and before leaving the site

likewise toilet cassette ..

works for me

but if you love a challenge... crack on..

and welcome to MHF

I've given up trying to get my gauges to work properly. After a few years I pretty well know our water state (the gauge does give a reading, if inaccurate) and generally top up whenever I have the opportunity. Luckily I don't have the payload problem some do - 100l of water = 100kg! And if the water needs topping up/refilling it's a given that the waste tank needs emptying too and while I'm at it the loo gets emptied.

In 15 years of motorhoming I've never had the situation of a completely full cassette although these days I carry a spare cassette on longer trips.

Must admit I gave up on my tank gauges many years ago.
