Newbie here... first week with our new RV and have two topics that I need help with.
FIRST - TV Cable Hookup
I'm trying to get cable TV to work. We've been watching TV via antenna, but the campground does have cable TV at the post.
I've confirmed that there is a good signal at the post (maintenance tested with their own TV and signal was good). I've connected through coax from the post to the input in the wet bay. Inside the coach, I've turned off the antenna power supply (found that by reading the manual ).
Next, on the TV, the input source is set to TV. I click "Menu," select "Channels," and perform an "Auto Channel Search," and I switch it over to "Cable from the wall."
Nada! It completes the search and returns that no channels were found. Help!
SECOND - Which lever is for black / gray tank for draining
I'm not confident that I understand which lever is for draining the black tank and which is for the gray tank.
Here's our configuration:
1. Bay to the left of the wet bay has two levers:
a. Large lever for knife valve directly connected to 3 or 4" pipe
b. Smaller lever for knife valve on passenger side of coach - again, a 3 or 4" pipe
2. Wet bay has two levers:
a. Large lever for knife valve for 3 or 4" pipe to which we connect the flexible hose for dumping
b. Smaller lever for knife valve that I've traced under rear of coach
We've managed to drain both black and gray tanks during our first week of usage, but I really want to know exactly which lever does what. And the gauges inside the coach aren't a tremendous amount of help as I believe I've fully drained one or both tanks, and both are showing 33% full.
Bonus points: our display panel shows TWO gray tanks and one black tank. Do we really have two gray tanks, or is that just a manufacturer setup error? Specs on the coach call for:
Fresh water = 72 gals
Black water = 40 gals
Gray water = 40 gals
