My 2016 Forest River Georgetown comes with a pretty basic control center for water/waste management. I have to press a button to see the level of each (black/gray/fresh/battery/lpg).
Of course this means that I have to remember to do it, which in my old age is getting worse. Today I nearly avoided a big issue because I happened to open the shower and low and behold another 1/3 inch would have been pushing water out of the shower pan.
Is there a replacement that could show the levels at all times without pushing a button at the very least? At the very best an audible sensor when it is 2/3 and Full?
Once you have your rig for a while, you will find you use the tank level indicators less and less as you will know about where they are by the way you are using water. You will know that you can go "X" number of days before you need to worry about it. Even then it doesn't hurt to make a habit of checking the levels a couple of time a day, more often as they approach full.

A somewhat cleaner approach might be to replace the switch with an on/off/momentary-on rocker switch, so you could push it one way to turn the meters on and the other way to briefly check them.
(I had to smile at your "nearly avoiding" a big issue. Taken literally, that means that you didn't quite avoid it...but thankfully that's not what actually happened!)
Unfortunately it is a single button per display ๐
