Black Tank #2 ??

My Holding Tank Indicator Levels have 2 Black Tanks and 2 Grey Tanks. I only see a Black and Grey Handle in the Access Compartment...and 1 Grey Tank Handle to the right of the Access Compartment. What/Where is the 2nd Black Tank?

but, how many toilets do you have? if one, you only have one tank.

The panel is a one size fits all!
If you only have 1 toilet you'll only have one black tank.
Just FYI, the #2 black tank sensor not being hooked up is probably as accurate as the sensor to #1 tank. In other words don't count on any of them being any where near accurate.

X2 what Travelin Texans says - manufacturers make as few parts as possible and just them across as many models as possible to save money. I also agree with the accuracy of the sensors. I use them as a VERY rough estimate as to what is actually in the tanks. Mainly, they will read full when you have barely put anything in them due to things getting hung up on the sensors. Your best sensor is your eyes and knowing how much you've put in. It can take a bit to learn your trailer but you'll get the hang of it.

Here is a blurb on the 2018 model you own:

http://www.rvguide.com/specs/keyston...try/310re.html

Generally, the only time you will have double tanks is gray tanks; one is a "galley" and the other is for the bathroom. Never have seen two black tanks in a camper with one potty. I have two gray tanks on my rear kitchen 5ver with second being the galley tank. You must be young and agile to crawl under the slide and then under the rear tire on the drivers side to dump the thing so I leave it open but main gate valve closed until the dumping ceremony is performed.

I have found that listening while finishing business is the best determination when to empty the black tank. lol good luck enjoy the lifestyle.
