For the first time in over 2 years the tank monitor read Empty when dumped. The only problem I am having now is that it seems to go from "Empty" to "2/3" after only a few flushes. I think this is due to the location of the sensors on the exterior of the tank and will be relocating them shortly to see if this corrects this issue.
On note for those of you with similar model RV's. During this process I found out that the sink in the half bath was actually attached to the black tank rather than the grey. This makes filling the tank with hot water much easier. I still, however, will use the SaniFlush after each dump because of the spray action.
That is not very smart in the part of the manufacturer, since the black tanks generally are smaller then the grey. It is a no brainer because the black tank would fill up pretty fast.
