Since you can't trust any of the sensor lights, I fill my water tank until it runs back out at me. I know that my wife and I can dry camp for at least a week without running out of water or filling the galley tank and the black and gray water tanks. We take sponge baths, and only use about 4 inches of water in the sink to wash dishes. We also use paper products a lot so that helps save water.
Another thing my wife does is she puts "certain types" of used toilet paper in the waste basket, so this helps to keep the black water tank from filling up. We can usually go up to 12 days without dumping the black water.
We also purchased a macerator so that we can pump the black water about 200 feet if we can reach a sewer. That way we can dry camp longer.
As full timers, we learn a lot of ways to live comfortably and conserve.
