Maybe I should take a few photo's of my Wet compartment where the Fresh fill and city water hookups are along with my Gray and Black dump valves. On the opposite side of the coach is my low point drain. There is no valve to turn on to fill fresh water just a garden hose inlet that I saw..
If your rig has a gravity type inlet to fill the fresh water holding tank. I'd unscrew the cap to see if that would allow the tank to drain.
I'm not good a physics or science, but IMO it's Sorta like a straw. Hold one end, and the straw holds the water. Release one end and the fluid is no longer in the straw.
That's the reason (in my Motor Home) I have to open the fill valve to allow the tank to drain. The fill valve in my motor home directs the flow of water entering the Motor Home. Closed it allows the city water connection to flow through the Motor Home, open and it fills the holding tank.
Unlike my previous Motor Home. I either directly connected / screw the water hose to the city water supply inlet. To fill the tank, I unscrewed the cap to the gravity feed inlet. With this set up I could fill the holding tank via a water hose, or five gallon / gallon jug.
