Title: grey and water tank level indicators
Post by: hitn the road on July 30, 2023, 11:59:16 am
   Thank you for the ad. I recently purchased a 1989 unihome and am very excited about it! This is one of the best maintained units I have seen in a long time. PO had a 25k custom paint job put on it, all new rubber, all new batteries, new ac unit, new front air bags, new air brake drums and lines, new smart tvs and more. Every issue was performed by Foretravel ( Live in se Texas and plant is two hours away) and documented by paperwork, including all service/owner manuals. I am planning on hitting the road at the end of the summer, so I am trying to address any issues I could possibly arrest while stationary. I have already replaced the air drier, 4 rear air bags, air regulator and a few seals. I have exhaustively looked for the tank level meter for the grey, as well as potable water tank, and cannot locate them, or the wiring where they were, although the wiring is on the tanks. I do not want to disturb the interior, as it also is in excellent condition, until I know where the original meter was located. If anyone could give me an idea of where to start looking I would appreciate it

Module should be under the dash, display on the dash. Mine failed before I bought my coach but wiring was still in place.

Many install a SeeLevel system. It's a fairly easy install especially if the wires are still in place. SeeLevel sensors go on the outside of the tanks.

On your coach if still OEM the tank level is part of the Javelina system.  There should be a switch that is next to the monitor that will toggle between camera and tank level. The other switch should be the on/off switch.

By the way welcome to the group

 Thank you for the information. The old backup camera, compass and factory cb radio have been removed and replaced with modern components. I figured it had to be somewhere on the dash after not finding anything on the walls. I appreciate the reply, as well as link.

My coach had a Javelina that was removed. I found they were out of business at the time.

Even if they were still around, they stopped supporting anything Foretravel-related due to the business relationship having gone way south back in the early 2000's.
