If it backs up in the shower it's TOO full. Unless we're on the road, we leave the gray water valve open while hooked up in a park. Never had a backup that way and never had black tank emptying problems either.

I ignore the idiot lights. I have filled it all the way up into the shower several times. Unless your plumbing is bad, there is no problem. I purposely did the same with the black tank, filled it till the toilet couldn't flush, again, no problem.
Even if you are on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there.
