After a week of adjusting to life in a motorhome we are finding out that things we took for granted in the past need our attention . For instance, toilets. We all know what to do with our toilet after use, flush. In a motorhome we have to check the levels of all of our tanks. Yesterday we thought it would be a good time to check the level of the "black" tank (poop tank). We opened the door to the monitor panel and pushed the button for the appropriate tank. Nothing lit up! We pushed all the other buttons and nothing again! OmG! We got on the internet and asked our friends in "Newmar Diesel Pusher Owners" if they had any ideas of what may be wrong. We did get answers. We drove to the dealer and they gave us the number of Holland Motors in Michigan. Then we got an email from "skip" from the NDPO club and he said check the fuse box and look for the label saying "monitor panel 10 amp". Yep, that was the problem. Michael said he looked but didn't see the label. Well, it was in small print. In the end, everything came out all right! Pardon the pun!

Perhaps you could begin to log your poops. Just keep a handy tally sheet near the toilet so you will have an idea of when it is time to dump.
Good idea! We did fix the problem! With a fuse! Go figure!
Awe, did you meet somewhere for lunch? Looks like a nice place.
