Title: Audit Sys
Post by: Cpt_kludge on September 22, 2021, 02:37:28 pm
I have an Audit system for backup camera and tank levels. AFAICT it all works.
That being said, I understand that the See-Level is a more accurate and durable system and I may need to move to that in the future.
Several questions:
Where is the audit control box located? I found something under the dash in the middle area between the driver and co-pilot. but am not sure that is it.
How do the sensors attach to the tanks? I have something that looks like it is attached to a tank and another that looks like it has come off. Don't know if these are Audit sensors or what. see attached:
Where are the tanks? I see one (I think) behind a panel from the pass side shallow compartment that the 12v distribution seems to be in. The Black tank seems to be directly under the toilet. don't know about the others.
Is it worth preemptively changing the audit, if it is working?
BTW, I plan on trying to connect the output of the audit video to one of the video inputs on my Android 10 stereo with a 7" motorized screen.

1.  Where is the audit control box located?
2.  How do the sensors attach to the tanks?
1.  The Audit 1160 brain box on my '93 U280 is under the lift-up dash cover, centered above the pull-out table.  Large silver metal box - numerous small wires connected to one side - power cable and coax cables connected to the other side.  See first 2 photos below.

2.  On my coach, the sensor wires for the old Audit tank levels were connected by small screws to round pads that appeared to be glued to the side of the tank.  In the 3rd photo below, you can see the old sensor pads on the black and grey water tanks (5 on each tank), and the new SeeLevel sensor strips.  I used some of the original Audit sensor wires to connect the SeeLevel sensor strips to the SeeLevel monitor panels.  I mounted one panel in my dash, and another in the wet bay.  See link below.

What did you do to your coach today VIII (https://www.foreforums.com/index.php?topic=36854.msg358883#msg358883)

Then the box I can see from the driver lift may be the Audit on my coach. Did not know that part of the dash lifts. May be just stuck down. I think I need to remove some panels to actually see the sides of the tank(s)
Thanks Chuck and Jeannie

My dash cover is all one piece.  Yours may be different.

My black and gray tanks on the curb side were originally hidden behind a "beauty panel".  I removed it to gain access when installing the SeeLevel strips.  Decided to just leave it off to make it easier to get at stuff and watch for leaks.
