5 การแก้ไขปัญหา
If you encounter issues with your Topargee Water Tank Gauge, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| ปัญหา | สาเหตุที่เป็นไปได้ | สารละลาย |
|---|---|---|
| Gauge not displaying or powering on. | ไม่มีแหล่งจ่ายไฟหรือการเชื่อมต่อหลวม | Check 12V power connection and ensure all wiring is secure. |
| Inaccurate water readings. | Incorrect initial capacity setting; sender unit not optimally placed; air in the line. | Re-program the initial capacity; ensure sender is installed after the pump and away from elbows (approx. 200mm); bleed air from the water system. |
| Display difficult to read from certain angles. | จำกัด viewing angle of the LCD display. | Mount the display unit at an optimal eye-level or angle for your primary viewing position. Consider mounting in a less prominent location if the bright backlight is distracting. |
| Wiring harness is too short. | Standard harness length is insufficient for desired mounting location. | Purchase and use official Topargee fixed-length harness extenders. Do not attempt to extend with standard wires as this may void the warranty. |
| Incompatible plumbing threads. | Sender unit uses BSP threads, while vehicle uses NPT. | Obtain appropriate BSP to NPT adapters before installation. |
| Display lights up bright blue when water flows, no dimmer. | This is a design characteristic of the unit. | No adjustment available. Consider mounting location to minimize distraction if desired. |
