Auto Fill gremlin

I prefer to run with Auto Fill disabled because I want to travel with 20-30% fresh water rather than a full tank. Therefore, when hooked to city water I set the 3-way valve to "City Supply (Auto Override)". That worked fine for a while. However now with the valve set in this position the Auto Fill mysteriously turns itself on and fills the fresh water up to 100%. I can't figure out how to turn the AutoFill off and keep it off.

Perhaps this is a faulty 3-way valve? Or is there a setting on Silverleaf or a valve setting in the wet bay that I may have wrong?

You can reset the level in the silver leaf. You need a code to do that. The factory code for mine is 042 yours might be different I also had to calibrate my level. I emptied that tank and zeroed it. There is a place to do that on the silver leaf also.

Thanks Steve, but I had thought that the level setting for auto fill would not come into play when the 3-way valve is set to City Supply (auto override). My understanding is that when the valve is set as such, the auto fill would be disabled, or "overridden". Is that correct?

On the silver leaf you can turn on or off the auto fill. I don't understand this valve but I don't like to travel with full water also. I believe it is on the home page. I'm finding new things on the silver leaf you can turn on the gen from home screen also.

Steve,
My gray and black tanks show 1-3% when empty. Minor issue I know. I checked with Silverleaf and found that my "unique" code is 42. ha ha.
Is it just a simple matter of just tapping the up/down arrows as each tank is highlighted?

On my silver leaf there is a calibration menu. As I remember it you empty the tank you want to calibrate and hit calibrate after you put in your special code. It has been since February since I did it so I will double check. If it is different I will get back with you

As you mentioned, just empty the tank and Tap dry calibrate.
