Red/Green automatic changeover regulator

On my 321RSTS, the automatic propane changeover regulator does not appear to have the typical "Red/Green" indicator. Is this a change for 2017?

Thanks

I can't see the front. My old one had the indicator on top. The new Camco replacement had it in the handle of the changeover valve.

this one shows red only. you have to use a mirror to see the indicator window. all in all kind of a crap design and poor mounting choice on Jaycos part.

Is it hidden behind the plastic? I see no indicator on front of the switch...

Thanks

There is a window in the white plastic cover.
Agree. Poor mounting location.

there is a window down near the bottom. below that tank selector.



I am rarely critical of Jayco and quick to defend them but this is nearly worthless and very poorly thought out. I carry a telescoping mechanics mirror and even with that it is difficult.

Thanks Rustysocket & everyone for your help!

THANKS for the great pic. Assuming that would be GREEN when filled.
How dumb can that mounting location be?
Just about have to pull the tank to see it. By then, I'll know anyway....

I have the same regulator on my Jayco. Anybody know how the spring, BB, O-ring and sleeve are supposed to fit together inside the threaded fitting where the pigtail is screwed into the regulator? I took it apart and one side had a plastic sleeve for the spring but the other side did not. WinnTec doesn't provide that level of detail on their parts diagram.

There is no green indicator, only red. Instead of green the window is just clear. When the tank is empty it will show bright red. You can test it by turning off the tank, then turn on a couple of burners on your stove for a minute, go back and the indicator should show red.
