Here it goes and probably not the answer you want. Those tank gauges aren't very reliable. Many of us don't use them at all other than for entertainment. As you get to know your rig you learn signs of when the tanks need dump. The toilet will burp, and the sink or shower will back up. Over time you just know when they need dumped before the back up. Some on here have upgraded to more reliable gauges, I have just never seen the need.

As Jim said, they are not accurate. We installed SeeLevel gages. They adhere to the outside and measure in percentage. Do not leave your valves open all of the time. There have been reports of nasty bug issues by doing that. You have the rotomolded tanks. They are much stronger than older style. Try dumping once a week. Also, use the gray water to flush after dumping your black tank. Definitely don’t leave your black tank open. That will end up with the dreaded pyramid.

On our HM 375FL, the second grey water valve handle is under the drivers side/kitchen slide.

Thanks to this groups knowledge our 1st true RV vacation is saved.

The sink wouldn’t drain by pulling the grey water handle in the ‘Convenience Panel’. We were thinking of heading home.

Thanks guys��❤️
