Tank treatment that can restore sensor accuracy?

Both my black and grey water tank sensors read full or partly full even when empty. Has anyone found a product to truly clean the tanks to restore them to proper functionality?

On our 4th trailer and the sensors never worked fulltime.
Now that it's just the wife and I, not a big deal.

Davw H M,

The wand might work if the toilet is a "straight shot" to the black tank. Mine is not--so it certainly would do little for me.

I guess I could be wrong, but after using the wand my black tank sensors work as they should. :h

Sigh, it kinda felt good to be whatever. ๐Ÿ˜‰

I have never had a reason to use the ice theory in any of my other trailers. The reasoning behind the time I did use it was due to waste build up that had solidified from the previous owner before it sat on a dealers lot. It was a 3 hour drive home to the storage lot, and it worked for me anyway.

I installed a Quickie Flush with custom spray pattern directed at the sensors and extra water to the rear of the tank.
OEM sensors work like new for 16 years.
