I have a Horizon with a Dometic toilet does not work. Push down on the handle and no water enters the bowl. Dewinterized on Thursday and it worked fine. Traveled on Saturday and used it..worked fine. Hooked up at campground and it does not work. All other faucets work. Any help will be appreciated.

Looks like your post has had a lot of looks, but no replies, so I'll throw my 2 cents in just for starters.

You say that pushing the flush lever doesn't do anything, so I suggest that you find out if there is water pressure to the toilet. You will need to turn off the water supply to the MH first, then get to the water line connection at the toilet, and see if you can remove it.

With the hose held over a container, have someone slowly turn on the water supply. Do you have water there?

If so, the flush valve in the toilet is the culprit. If not, you need to work back to the source for that line to the toilet. Visually trace where is goes, and see if there is something amiss.

It might be better to start troubleshooting in the reverse order, as you MAY not need to disconnect that water line, if you find your problem up-stream.

Hope this helps get you started.

Thanks. I found a wire pinched under a partition. I could not get it out so I cut it and reconnected it. Did not solve the problem. There is supposed to be a 2 amp fuse that I can not find. I will call Winnebago today.

Ah, you have electric flush. I was going to ask you about that, but somehow I decided that the flush lever was a water valve.

Winnie should be able to tell you where the fuse is for that circuit. Probably best place to start. Good luck.

Found a bad switch and I ordered one from Dometic. I am not sure I see the wisdom of an electric toilet.
