I am not am expert but one of my jobs during college was putting in septic systems. I didn't design them or run the tractor but I did spend alot of time in the trench. I would like to expand on the post by Mike (WA).
I was taught the drain field lines should receive equal amount of liquid and to that end all the outlets on my distribution boxes were set dead nuts level. Since all your lines are green it simply suggests they are all equal. I would agree perhaps full of water and therefore failing.
One way to determine is to have your septic tank pumped. Ask the technician if he/she can watch/listen for water returning from the drainage field. A drainage field in good condition should not have a significant amount of water flowing back into the tank as it is pumped.

BTW - The ends of the drainage fingers should not be connected. That can form a ground loop. Sorry I could not resist...
