| Post subject: | Fireboy Tank Monitors |
I recently bought a 2000 248 Vista. I would like to ask some guidance on the tank monitor system. I understand they can be very troublesome. The tank monitor for fresh and gray tanks work great. The black water system is an issue. I pulled the sending units and monitors and conducted a bench test, all worked great. When I plunged the components back into the harness the fresh and gray continued to work as required. the black water tank shows 3/4 to full alternating. I believe it is an issue of resistance in the wire or the connection is shorting out. Any thoughts? |

None of my monitors work, and it would be great if they did. Can you simply bypass the harness with a temporary wire to test your theory? |

I replaced them with the newer style units from Fireboy on my 268 and had no more issues. |

I was chasing those electrical gremlins also till I found moisture wicks up into the potted circuit board of the sensor and shorts it out. There is a pic of the damage in this link viewtopic.php?f=6&t=12577&hiliI ended up replacing mine with new, and they already lost their calibration....what junk that company makes |
