Black tank seep
Waste gate valve seals are bad and need to be replaced. Thetford does make a valve seal cleaner/rejuvenator that may correct the problem.

Can't tell that from the VIN. Only where manufactured. Could have been shipped anywhere.
Try doing a title search at your local DMV. Might turn up something.
Adjust slide out on heartland prowler
The slides are designed to tip and drop when coming out so that when fully extended they will be flush with the floor. When coming back in the bottom will pull in first and cause the top to tilt out until the slide fully closes and the weight transfer back to balanced and the slide properly seals. When the slide is all the way out is it sealed all the way around? If it is then you do not need to adjust. There is alot of weight being balanced at two connecting points under the slide. If it does need to be adjusted you are better off taking it to someone who knows what they are doing.
How do I get the radio to stop playing outside the trailer?
There should be a series of buttons marked A. B and C. A is for the living room, B is usually for the bedroom and C is outside. If it is a carstereo type system you will need to go into the setup mode where you will find the balance and fade. Balance left and right to see if it turns off the outside. If is does not then fade front or back and see if it turns it off.
How do you drain holding tanks 1 and 2 on a trail runner 39qbbh
Are you asking because monitor panel says full still? Not uncommon for paper or other debris to hang on probes inside tank and cause panel to read improperly. Close valve, add some water and then pull valve and listen for flow. If that water flows through ok, your likely empty.
No electricity while using battery power
You will not have electricity while on battery power. Two different systems. Electric is 110VAC and battery is 12VDC. If on battery power the lights will work, the furnace will work (LP gas and 12v blower motor), the refrigerator will work (LP gas and 12v power for circuit boards) and the water heater will work (LP gas and 12v power for circuit board). The only way to have electricity while on battery is to install an inverter but you will need extra batterys and still will not have enough power to run the AC for any extended length of time.
Adjust water temperature
It is possible that there is an open valve on the back of the water heater which is allowing the hot and cold to mix. Locate the back of the water heater. You will see a water line going into the bottom of the water heater. That is cold water in and there will be a valve on that line. It should be open (The handle inline with the direction of the pipe). At the tope there will be another pipe coming out. That is the hot water out. It may or may not have a valve but if it does make sure that it is open. Then there will be a water line connecting the top and bottom water lines and it will have a valve in it. Make sure that the valve in this line is closed. That is a winterizing bypass valve. If this does not correct the problem let me know and I will give you more steps to consider.

HAVE 110 WHEN PLUGGED IN OR ON GEN BUT HAVE LOST 12V WHEN UNPLUGGED OR GEN OFF.
Do you have 12v when plugged in or on generator? If you do, then it's likely 1) a fuse or breaker for the converter, or 2) the converter is dead. Is your battery good? Try using taking the battery out and using to crank your car or truck. If that works, look at the fuse or breaker for your converter or your converter may be dead. If the batter doesn't work, do the opposite and put your car/truck battery in your RV and see if your 12v works -- if it doesn't, then check your converter fuse/breaker or it may be dead; if it does, then your battery is terminally (pun) dead.
