Hi again,
My tank monitor lights were working fine and then quit working the other day. The light that signals the pump "on" still works on the same panel though. Could this be a fuse?
Also, when I switch on the water heater, the red light doesn't flash at all and I believe the water heater doesn't turn on.

Re: Tank monitor has quit
A fuse would be a good place to start...maybe those two are on the same fuse. If it is a fuse, you have to start wondering why it blew. They will occasionally blow for no reason, but usually they blow because of a short circuit or overload. (I had a scary moment with our trailer Friday - I went to use the tongue jack and found the breaker had tripped. I reset it, then realized the wires by the jack had shorted out and were burning. I hit the master cutoff and managed to stop the fire that way, but I had a mess to repair, and there are some scorch marks to clean up yet...)

Replaced the monitor from ebay ($35) and works fine.

That's good news and the price was reasonable (I guess). What did you replace? Was it difficult? How did you find it on eBay - I'm not sure I would know what to search for.vzfit wrote:Replaced the monitor from ebay ($35) and works fine.

I just unplugged the old one and plugged the new one in. Simple as that.
