Water Tanks ? (1 Viewer)

chausson welcome suite 2010
Hi you lot
Problem (wouldn't be fun otherwise)

Control panel reading Waste full when it's empty
Control panel reading Fresh water empty when it's full

Probes in fresh water tank were a bit lime scaled & touching the side of the pump , removed unit and cleaned & refitted properly ( some muppet been playing with it before & put back badly) all sorted now,
But it's almost like someone's reversed the connections ,I've filled freshwater and it reads empty,
I've not put anything back wrongly the readings were odd to start with
Ime now into head scratching & getting splinters in my fingers
Anyone encountered this problem
I did previously have a panel van and you could remove control panel and reboot it but don't think that would solve this one .
Take care Alon sw/ uk

Worth using some Fenwicks tank cleaner in the waste tank as the sensor is probably mucky - had the same problem on my van

Cleaned sensor already it's spotless mm!
Thanks for reply

Sorry if I am missing something but have you any evidence that either sensor is working other than offering the wrong information?
Is there any possibility that the wires are wrongly connected behind the panel?
Would the polarity make any difference?
I ask these questions because you implied someone had been 'messing' with the wiring.

May be between the tank and the control panel, i.e. one wire shorted and the other disconnected.

All things are possible just looking at the obvious things 1st ie probes , I've had van a week I can see someone's had tank sensor out by the poor way it was refitted etc , I've had control panel out , no resets just printed circuit,I've unplugged & replugged ie reboot , it's not that , next yes probably the wiring , a process of elimination really .
