Balmar SG200 problem and related to other post

dg0603 · 07-03-2022, 10:50 PM

Looks like I'm not alone with Balmar problems. Mine is stuck on the "This display" menu choice after getting the no service message. Was working great yesterday. Tried all the usual including the factory reset.

In this post below it refers to the SmartShunt....with the red and black wires. I don't think it was on a Class B. Does anyone know where that is on a Tellaro? I assume right under the longer bed up front but don't want to unscrew things without knowing.

Any ideas? Thank you in advance.

I would check underneath the panel above the breaker box on the passenger side where the bed is. There should only be four screws to remove and then you can lift up that panel. You will also need to remove that if you choose to winterize the coach because the valve to turn off the fresh water tank is over there. I had mine off but can't remember if the shunt is over there but worth checking. If you can't find it would probably just call Thor Customer Service. If you don't already have their schematics for all things on your Tellaro check the following link and register and you can download:

Also, if you have not turned off the master rotary battery switch located below the Balmar would try that first after making sure the coach is not connected to shore power.

Good luck

Thank you for jumping in for me Robert.

I figured that out by removing that cover. Saw the wire and did the fix. It is back online now. In the future (and we all know there will be a future) I can just pop that cover and redo that wire cap.

No problem and glad it worked out. I am also figuring this new van out and much different than the class A we had before that did not have lithium batteries. So far we have been happy with it and very few problems. Good to know it was easy to access and will make a note of it in case I have a similar problem.

Yes I have to say all in all we've been very lucky too.

Big problem on delivery but after that the only issue is my fresh tank sensor.

When you do delve into some area of construction you see just how careless and lazy they are though. It's depressing.

That little Balmar meter is kind of a big deal because it tells you were your batteries are. And to take it all the way to a dealer for that fix?

What a timely post. I had the same problem two days ago and used this information to fix it.
I was lucky in that the device was above all the other wiring under the bed.

Excellent!

I don't know what I'd do without these boards. People are very cool and go to the effort to be helpful. Saves a lot of headaches and money.

They do not come with. You need the sg200-0300. Available on Amazon. Install is easy and plugs into the back of the display gauge.

Totally agree. For a little more information on this device see the following thread toward the end that was posted today. You have to have the device, plug it in and then download the App that allows you to use it.
