Fresh water tank not filling up?

Hi, okay, so, we have a 2012 Elkridge 5th Wheel, and our fresh water tank is constantly on "E" empty. We are "full-timers" and hooked up to the city water. We are very new to RV'ing, so we are clearly lost.

The first issue we had was very low water pressure, but now we have that working fine, again, because we replaced our regulator. Now, after replacing our regulator about 8-9 hours ago our fresh water tank has yet to fill. It is still showing "E" on the monitor in our RV. It's been on "E" now for the past several days. Any clue on why this is or how to fix it?? Thanks!! :)

Sara831, welcome to the forum. This is a great forum to gather information.
If you are new to the RV world, there are a few things you may not be aware of. Like, in order to fill the freshwater tank you have to run a hose into the inlet to fill it. It will not fill automatically just because you are hooked to city water.
Hope this helped.

Peace
Dave

Dave is right, there is a valve that prevents this, other wise your tank would fill up and overflow. You might want to read the owners manual a little bit. Have a good trip.
