I think I discovered the first item my PO forgot to mention. Seems I may have a leak in a holding tank or its associated plumbing. I was wondering why we kept filling it up but when it came to dumping out, things didn't equate (less out than going in). Luckily we haven't been using the toilet.

Looks like plenty of silicon near the leaking joint so PO most likely knew about this.

Anybody have a simplified diagram for a Royale twin holding tank(s) and dump configuration? My monitor panel shows 2 tanks. Not sure why it would have two tanks seeing how everything is so close together. Owner's manual mentions two dump valves, but I seem to have only one valve.

Gobs of silicon PO repair attempt. Not sure what the cut wires are for. Perhaps another PO discovery.
