Hello & Gas Indicator

Hello, I’m new to the forum I purchased a 2018 kingham. It’s a great vehicle and just getting to know it. Is there an lpg indicator on it?

Hello and welcome to the Forum from South Wales.

Usually, AutoSleepers which have the underslung LPG tank have the gas tank's level indicator somewhere near the steering wheel on the dashboard. It's a row of small indicator LEDs - which only light up if the engine is running (not merely ignition on). Mine is near the door, to the right of my right knee!

There's a thread which helps. I'll try to find it.

Here's the thread:https://www.autosleeper-ownersforum.com/t24662-lpg-gauge?highlight=LPG+gauge

And here's a post about the gauge:

For those who have the Gasit 9 LEDs gauge (for the standard 25 litres tank, being 20 litres net working capacity), the following table may be helpful. It's dervived from Gromit's posts above. I compiled it and printed it to place near the gauge as a reminder. All thanks to Gromit, noting his caveats.

The key fact is that the left-most LED (red) only displays after all 8 green LEDs are extinguished, showing that you're down to your last 4 or so litres.

Red LED only (not normally on): say 4 litres left. Time to top up.
1 green LED: 2 litres (plus reserve of 4) = 6 litres left
2 green LED: 4 litres (plus reserve of 4) = 8 litres left
3 green LED: 6 litres (plus reserve of 4) = 10 litres left
4 green LED: 8 litres (plus reserve of 4) = 12 litres left
5 green LED: 10 litres (plus reserve of 4) = 14 litres left
6 green LED: 12 litres (plus reserve of 4) = 16 litres left
7 green LED: 14 litres (plus reserve of 4) = 18 litres left
8 green LED: 16 litres (plus reserve of 4) = 20 litres left
