I have a 2005 PleasureWay Plateau TS on a Sprinter body
I found by dumping my black water holding tank and then dumping 4 bags of ice cubes in a 12 gal tank and adding at least 3 gal of fresh water to allow the ice to float then continue driving for 20 to 30 miles sometimes braking to cause the ice in the holding tank to move and cause a scrubbing action inside my tank. End result the ice cleaned my tank and sensors and the only thing left to dump is water. Larger holding tanks will require more ice and water. This is a very cheep fix to a sensor problem.
