Funny how this statement is made numerous times. Mine have always worked and been accurate since my first trailer in 1989. Proper use and maintenance is all that is needed. As posted in this thread, lots of water when flushing, use of dissolving TP and a good rinsing will keep them working.

ALL the used RV’s I have gotten ready for resale have been either working properly, or I have used sensor cleaner and/or tissue digester to get them to read properly again. Gray tanks may need a different “treatment”, but even those have been good to go when sold.
