My 1994 370 EC has a Vacuflush system,with a macerator in addition to the holding tank. I noticed this morning that the indicator on the main power panel shows 3/4, which is the first stage of tank level warning. Nothing new there, Ive seen that before. However, the word "POWER" is illuminated just beneath it. I don't recall seeing that before. Does that mean there is no power to the macerator? I never use it, but could have blown a fuse. Didn't have time to check the fuse or breaker this morning, but I'd appreciate any thoughts as I prepare for my weekend chores. Thanks.
 
On my system the power and level indicators are at the head, the power light is always on as long as the breaker at the main panel is in the on position.

The macerator is usualy operated thru a seperate breaker than the vacuflush, on my 88 WE it was key operated. This is so it does not "accidentaly" discharge.
