Re: no green light on Alde system button
MuttonChops said:Are you 100% sure the indicator light (LED) is not on.
One trailer builder web-page has this comment:
Turn ON the Alde system by pressing the power button on the left. The power button has a little green light just right of center but you may need to look at it straight on to see it.
Another thing to consider when looking for the Green LED:
The POWER & MENU touch pads are small plastic disks that have some free play in the Panel Housing. I am forever centering the Menu Pad - - - drives me crazy when it is not centered.

@gkillmaster, the easiest way is to purchase the fluid through Amazon (I have a gallon on the way right now, just to have when I need it)..........Century Chemical TF-1 Transfer Fluid:

Re: no green light on Alde system button
@gkillmaster, I do not think there is any hard and fast rule on how often to check the glycol level, but it sounds like you are doing fine at a few times a year. Probably a good idea to do it before a big trip just for the reassurance. Gives you a chance to top off the tank as needed.
P.S. I should have clarified in my earlier "reboot" message...........if you have your camper plugged in to shore power (e.g., at your house), unplug that as well so you have cut off all power (AC or DC) before again powering-up.

Re: Need help troubleshooting please. Water stopped coming out of the sink.
Depending on your level of bravery, you could get an ice pick or similar tool and see if you can break up the obstruction enough that it can be sucked out by the pump and collected in the filter basket.
Re: Need help troubleshooting please. Water stopped coming out of the sink.
OK, let's recap.
We have a Sink and Outside Shower plumbing
configuration.
The Adle is correctly in By-Pass mode.
When City Water is connected, everything works
correctly . . . hot & cold water have pressure and flow.
When City Water is not connected and the Pump
is used, pressure/flow stop as soon as city water built up pressure
is released/used.
So something is wrong with the Pump or Pump
water lines.
[] fresh water tank vent could be blocked - - -
low likelihood
[] fresh water feed line could be blocked - - -
can you blow air into the hose (hose that connects to Pump filter) and
hear bubbles in the tank?
[] Are all pump fitting air tight? No leaks.
[] If sure pump feed line is clear and no air leaks, time to
remove the pump.
Consider Taking Pump apart**, confirm there is no
junk in the passages, put back together and try pumping again.
** I've pulled and disassembled mine while
camping so it's not a big/difficult task. Only tricky step with pump
plastic head assembly is getting it back on in the correct position
so the pump can be mounted on the wall with correct in – out
fitting locations.
Re: Need help troubleshooting please. Water stopped coming out of the sink.
I think she means into the hose going into the water pump. I did that once before like this..
But you could also try a water hose instead of air (would still need an adapter).
Another idea, without an adapter, might be to disconnect both pump hoses (disconnect any city water hose & release pressure first by draining some out), then connect the input hose to the output side of the pump (if it will reach) so you can blow into the fresh water tank line.

You may have an obstruction in the fresh tank outlet. Try blowing air back into the fresh water tank.
Re: Wifi outdoor camera, recommendations?
I like the Amazon Blinks, because there's no subscription and they're battery powered. The batteries last for over a year easily.
Re: fresh water tank is no longer filling through the "city water" inlet
Your fresh water tank is NOT SUPPOSED to fill from the city water opening. It is designed that way on purpose so that when you are at a campground and using city water, the fresh water tank won't fill up and overflow into your camper. If your freshwater tank was filling from the city water valve, then the check valve that prevents that was stuck open and has since reset itself to work correctly. You always fill your fresh water tank through the specific fill port. The city water connection is designed to bring water directly to your sink, shower, and toilet without the tank or pump.
Re: Flush water tank with bleach?
Once you have the very, dilute bleach solution in the fresh tank, you can open your faucets and let it run into your drains/gray tank. Just drain your gray tank. No reason to sanitize. Keep your p trap filled with water to prevent any foul odors from coming up through the drain.
