Sorry for the delay in getting back to you all.
Something that I do not think I mentioned but when I check the system monitor panel it shows that the holding tank is 2/3 full and I have never gotten it to empty completely and the gray shows that it is empty. I have also read that in some cases the shower or bathroom sink could also go into the black holding tank. Have you heard this before?
I also called coachmen service department and they agreed that it is a full tank issue. So based on coachmen alluded to, what is the best approach to resolving the issue? Do I run a snake up the 1.5 inch black line? I have visions of waste going all over me (like Robin Williams in the movie RV).Any advice would be very helpful
Forget the gauges at this time.
The bathroom sink usually does dump into the black tank.
Showers don't.
Before you start shoving stuff up your sewage lines answer this.
1. Have you physically 'pulled each valve blade separately' for both the 'black' tank and 'gray' tank ?
I.E. > Open one valve, close it, and then open the other valve.
Are you saying nothing comes out of either?
