13 years since retirement and many younger years as a Hippy in a VW conversion, roaming the Greek Is
The needle pointer,which indicates the level of charge in the batteries, the amount of waste water
and fresh water, has stuck, in my Burstner t620 Travel Van. I have tried to open the panel but it seems to be a sealed unit so I have not been able to physically move it.
The batteries are charged throughout the winter, either on hook up or because the van is driven every week. So I know the batteries are not flat. Could it be the cold and damp of winter? Does it work using a fuse which might have blown? It functioned all through September and October whilst we were away then once parked for the winter, no movement at all. Any ideas for a cure please?

Mine does that too. I have to keep tapping it to make it register. not sure what to do about it long term though!

If you, or someone you know, is handy, the meters themselves will be generic & cheap. Scales are transferable.

The specialists in Wales sold me a new meter. Silly price but he says that is what the Germans charge him.

Is it A and N Caravans, or something like that.
