Hi Gary---
Just so you don't feel bad by yourself,....We just purchased our 2001 Royale and spent alittle time in it last week. We are still trying to figure out the auto fill, also!! So maybe someone will sound on the alarm and quit lurking.

I have to turn my water pump off for the autofill to work properly. Dan

Hey Jim, thanks for the tip on Coachwoxk, I'll call them. Danss, which pump do you turn off, the A/C headhunter or the little surflow or both? I'm trying to get my arms around the alayout of this system but there seems to be little info out there. Anyone have a wiring diagram?

I only have one water pump, but if I had 2 I would turn both off. Hope this helps.

A little more info! I turn pump off and fresh fill on then water. If water continues to run after my indicator says tank is full water pours out from under bus. When indicator says tank is full I turn off fresh fill, and I then have water pressure in bus with pump off. Hope this clears it up . Dan

I have 2002 Royale the auto fill will work when fresh water hits 10% shut off at 90% you do not need to turn the pump off. The guys to call on the Royale issues are Royale Phoenix they own all the records on the coaches and is owned by two of the engineer. They are a great resource for information and parts. You give them your coach number and they have all your info. royalephoenix.com 574.206.1216 dan jordan. hope this helps

Hi,

Like Doug said it is automatic. You don't have to turn off any pumps.
If anybody has any questions call me at 815-437-2856 and we can compare systems,

Thanks everyone. I spoke with Dan out at Phoenix Royale and he explained the problem to me. One of the weaknesses of Royale's auto fill system is the solenoid that closes the water valve can be distroyed by heat if left on after the water flow has stopped. I always thought the valve was spring loaded in the closed position and the solenoid opened it to fill the tank but based on my conversation with Dan that may not be true. I'm going to visit these guys in a couple of weeks and will share all the details of the Royale autofill then.

Gary, Ed and I will be following this thread while you are at Royale Phoenix regarding the "auto fill". Please post when you find the correct way to use it. We have a 2001 Royale XLII. We stopped by there right after we got the bus in March this year to have the backup camera worked on. They did a great job on building the bus. The wood work done by them was TOP QUALITY! Say hello to Glen and Don for us.
Also, I hope that we can exchange questions with our buses and hopefully we can learn from each other. 2 brains are always better than one!
Sandy and Ed
