Hi
Does anyone know if there is a repair kit for the toilette?
Just found out leaking, I checked the fittings and the pipes and they are all good it leaks when the pedal is pushed I can see water coming from the plastic piece in the back of the toilette.
Maybe a part number? I am afraid the whole thing needs to be replaced.

I am almost to the point that any reasonable offer will buy my unit.

Thank you

I just did mine the other day. The valve was $20 from the dealer

Cannot help you with specific toilet problem. But I do carry a spare valve. After a couple of neighbors in our park had failures And had to shut off all the water in their RV until toilet was fixed. I added a shut off valve in water line that feeds toilet. This allows use of water elsewhere in RV and a cup can supply water to toilet.

I see the toilette has 2parts it seems

Do I need to remove the upper part?

Disconnect the water and unbolt it from the floor flange.   You can access the valve from the back of the toilet.

I had same issue. I tried bounce, farm store smelly stuff, ultrasonic sound devices and finally when changing electrical transfer switch found how they were getting in and a big nest on top of transfer switch. Be sure to seal up all openings to underneath no matter how small. Also every six months I spray Mouse Free on undercarriage. It is a slippery spray with anti mouse scent. You hook it up to an air compressor and spray entire undercarriage.

Ron, I'm waiting for a new toilet as well and I noticed your shutoff. where do we find parts for that hose size ?
And can I just use hose clamps instead of those funky bands that are on there now ?
Thanks
Bruce

I put the valve in waterline where it comes out of vanity. The water lines is 1/2" PEX available from HD and Lowes. Valve came from HD. I have a tool that puts the crimp rings on that are in picture linked below. You can also find some valves in HD that require no special tools to crimp rings. I believe they are called Sharkbite.
