Waste tank level sensors are an evil minded engineers idea of a good time.
They are notoriously inaccurate, unreliable and after all the trouble one goes thru to clean them they fail again next time.
*Don't leave dump valves Open
*Wait to dump tanks until almost full
*Use plenty of water
*Add some water back to tanks after dumping so bottom stays wet, can slosh around when driving and won't allow anything in tank to stick/dry out
*Buy a CLEAR sewer adapter so you can see that tanks are dumping properly
*Don't OCD over tank cleanliness....just going to get '****' in them again
Just dump/rinse----repeat as needed
TP, Poop, Pee....all can go into tank and will come back out
No 'wet wipes'
Wipe pots/pans/plates of food/grease--oil
The RV is JUST like your house....except on wheels.
Not alot different.
