Tested to make sure all in working order - water pump, toilet, both sinks. Probably ran about a gallon, more or less. First observation - water seemed "soapier" with more of a chlorine odor than that small amount of bleach should have made. Thought maybe need to run for a while longer to clear the lines, but then made second observation.

Second observation - indicator panel now shows the Gray Water tank at 3/4 full. (showed empty prior) Pretty sure that tank should hold more than two gallons, so what is the communities thoughts?

Do we have a bad tank sensor?

Tank sensors are notoriously 'bad'... Won't say defective - they just don't work well... You will learn how long you can go between dumping.

Did you flush the system completely after adding bleach? It takes a bit to get that out.

No connections between fresh water and gray tank... water must leave a faucet and enter a drain to get there.
