2017 Prime Time Crusader 29 RS no water

Can anyone tell me why my shower has no water coming out? I have good water pressure in the bath room sink and also kitchen sink. We have only owned this trailer for 3 months and this is the first time we dewinterize it and added water. Also, when the fresh water tank is full the tank monitor is still showing empty ! Not a happy camper right now about my new 5th wheel camper

Just throwing this out there and I'm sure you checked it but the save water button on the shower head. Did you mess with that?

Could be debris clogging the shower head.

Maybe a shutoff valve is turned off somewhere?

Pull the hose off and slowly turn on the water might be something there also water flow restrictor could be causing the issue, you can pop it out with a pair of needle nose pliers but just put the hose back on if you pull it out and try the water again otherwise there will be a mess.

For your gauges not reading correctly. Does your control panel say black tank 1 and black tank 2? Try switching from 1-2 or vise versa and see if your gauges read correct after that. My 2017 315rst had the same issue. Changed from black 1 to 2 and everything reads correctly. Hope this helps.

Did you take the hose off of the shower faucet valve itself & check there for debris?

Some times, you may have to drain the water system and apply some compressed air to the shower valve and blow back to dislodge any possible blockage.

Neither does mine but the control panel is labeled for 2 black tanks. I think they use the same control panel for all the models.

your panel should look like this and have a switch labeled black tank 1 and under the switch it says black tank 2. you might have only 1 black tank but the control wont display whats in the tanks unless you have it switched to the correct black tank.

Man, you have a fancy control panel. Mine looks nowhere near this ! Mine is only 4x5 in the bathroom. It only shows: black, gray, fresh and battery
