If it's backing up into the shower pan your holding tank must be full.
You should check your drain valve. It probably is broken so that when you pull the rod to drain the slide valve isn't opening.
Or something is clogging the drain exit.
Perhaps someone has been dropping "wet naps" into the toilet?

Hello Emery, I purchased the coach in October of 2016 and nobody has been using the toilet since I have owned it. I did a renovation and removed and replaced the toilet during last winter.

I did drain both tanks this past summer and as mentioned above I never noticed any slow drainage, even when I filled the grey tank and drained it, it appeared to drain well. I have no previous history or knowledge of what it should drain like but it seemed to flow quite well.

Thanks,
Mike
