we have a 2000 380 DA which we bought back before the season. Not having much luck with the levels, always shows empty. I tried to pull the floats out, but it stopped short of that, slid up and down. I have included a pic to show my set up

On a side note, my fresh water always shows full, so any help there would be great

Any help is appreciated!

Get a label maker and label the wires prior to cutting them and installing butt connectors. Now you can unscrew the cap and later attach the wires correctly. Next unscrew the cap and remove the sensor. Guarantee they're all cruddy. Put them in a bucket and scrub them clean. Next, note the different lengths. Unscrew each sensor from the top and then you can adjust how far down they go down in the tank. As you fill the tank with waste note when a sensor trips and then adjust up or down to where you want it to trigger.
 
Mine had a plug in line that was just simply unplug, unscrew, and manipulate the probes out.

Clean them good, use only Norflex Digester and no more problems.

Thank you Just the two of us
love the idea of the plug, do you have any info on where/what type you have?

I put a plug on mine so I didn't have to cut the wires each time. I also would say they are just dirty.
