Waste water gauge flashing

[Brianc26]

Our California's waste water gauge is flashing in the control panel, it's not full and is draining away ok. Will the senior be faulty ? Or maybe a loose connection

I have the same thing. Managed to take it out and check but it worked fine when moving it manually. Then after installing the same thing - keeps flashing even after "hard reset". Anyone any ideas? Thanks for the topic.

What did you mean with "hard reset" ?

You can read here how you reset the controlpanel and how to read out the (fault)codes.

A flashing symbol means something is wrong....

I pressed bottom right button for approx. 5 seconds to clear the error. At the beginning of the issue it worked for few days then it kept coming back. What is strange is that I removed it and it (the level sender) worked fine! it's a mystery.

Thank you for that link, I will try to find out the error behind. As of now I keep to empty the tank as often as I can. It prevents also the odour to develop during longer trips.
