The issue I am having is that if I do not flush the tank after emptying, the tank level monitor is not reliable. The monitor system on my coach is made by KiB, and use what are called well-nuts for the sensors, which protrude into the tank (i.e. they are not flush with the inside).
This can cause toilet paper to cling to the sensor nuts, which can foul the reading. If I flush the tank with fresh water until I no longer see clumps of toilet paper exiting (by viewing on the clear plastic hose segment) then the tank monitor system will eventually begin to work again.
I am not sure if everyone is having similar sensor faults, but it does seem to be a very common problem, especially with the well nut type sensors, which have been described to me as pretty much useless.
But these sensors are used extensively in RVs... not because they work, but because they are cheap.
Of course, possible alternative solutions may be to use a more aggressive tank treatment or different TP that will dissolve more and not hang up on the sensors.
