Question Front Bathroom Ques (Macerator)

Manual says when front bath macerator pump empties the tank you'll hear a distinct change in the sound. I admit to being half-deaf, but I've yet to hear the sound change . . . Qhich causes this worrywart concern over running the pump when it's pumped out all it coild.
?

Did you pull open the black tank T valve just above the macerator?

Yes. Opened that valve, then valve in rear bay, push button to run punp. Maybe too far from pump to hear?

Regardless, will have clear elbow at drain hookup next trip. May not be pretty to look at but will see what's going on.

My adventurer also has 2 black valves in the wet bay. A smaller one at the top of the outlet just below where the hose from the macerator is connected and a larger one from the rear black tank on the right side. Don't know your setup.

I can hear a difference in the sound when pumping "stuff" vice when the tank is empty.

Problem identified. Won't go to details. Enough to say absolutely disgusting sabotage.
