Hello,

The fresh water gauge stopped working on my 2021 R25 Tug. I have voltage at the gauge so I can eliminate wiring issue. Wondering if replacing the gauge will fix it. As anyone had this problem and what brand gauge did you use?

Thanks!
 
Does the voltage change w/ differences in tank level?
 
The needle is stuck on empty. I haven't checked the voltage at different levels. The fact that it's always on empty lets me believe not the sender.
 
It's possible the float is stuck. I had to replace the gauge, which isn't difficult. Worked great ever since.
 
our gauge was stuck on full once. We banged the side of the water tank with a large wrench and that unstuck the float. Maybe give that a try. Hopefully it's an easy fix.
