How to tell the gray tank is full!!
We discovered you can tell the gray tank is full when the kitchen sink backs up into the bath tub.:E Not the most pleasant but at least it was not the black water. The black water we can look in...

10 years and counting and ALL my gauges, black and gray, all WORK.
If you take the time to clean the tanks thoroughly and don't pour grease and food stuffs down the drain your gauges WILL work.
Bottle of lemon cleaner every week and/or a bottle of sensor cleaners periodically is all that is needed. I even read in my RV manual that even types of well water can make them not function. Manual suggests sensor cleaners periodically which I follow and have not problem.
I just find it very hard to listen to RV'ers that just write off their gauges to poor coach workmanship. :R
It's keeping the tanks CLEAN so the guages CAN work is all that is needed.
Your's work, that's great and you are one of the lucky ones... Mine never worked correctly from day 1 of having the brand new trailer. I haven't even looked at them in the last five years. Don't need them anyway.
I think you should have raised that issue with the dealer at the time of purchase, but the point is that WORKING sensors will continue to work if they are properly cleaned. We have used the Geo Method two or three times a season since the trailer was new and after eight years our sensors still work perfectly. Luck has nothing to do with it.
