Thetford V-200CS V Toilet

 ·  Posted: 22.05.2016  ·  #1
Some time ago our Cassette toilet stopped flushing, Just before it stopped the toilet full light came on even though the cassette was nearly empty, in fact it was the only time I ever saw it to work. the pump is working when the button is pressed and is pumping water when I remove the supply pipe, also the fuse near the reed switch is not blown. Today I filled the cassette with water and pushed it back in place and the toilet full light didn't work. Any Idea's Guys & Gals, Any body have this problem and solved it?

If the float inside the cassette is faulty (and thinking the cassette is full) it may stop the solenoid from letting more water into the bowl, thus stopping an over flow situation,

Hope fully it's as simple as that,

Worst case scenario use the shower to flush the loo or use a bottle to flush clean water until you figure what the problem is :up:

Plenty of craicers going to c&h so you won't be stuck :lol: :lol:

I was thinking the same thing John, I believe there is a magnet attached to the float that activates the reed switch but you would think it would stop power going to the solenoid valve only when the magnet is aligned with the reed switch. if that is the case you would think it would work with the cassette out. I might try a magnet in front of the reed switch and see what happens or I might by pass it.
Thanks John.

Next time you are away try somebody else's cassette to see if it's the magnet or not,

No doubt you will figure it out handy enough :up:
