VacuFlush Pump Removal Fleetwood Bounder
Hello all,
Hoping for any help or advice from anyone that's in the know. We have a 2008 Fleetwood Bounder 38p. It has a vacuflush toilet that has stopped working. There is no noise from the pump and standing water in the toilet will not drain out when pushing down on the flush pedal. Tried plunging with no victory, in case something was stuck in a duckbill valve. After pump is turned on, the light on the vacuflush panel glows green as if it's ready for action. Maybe the reason the pump isn't making any noise. Luckily the black tank is empty and the standing water in the toilet is only soapy water from cleaning.
I've located the pump and the rest of it's assembly behind an access panel under the slide on the drivers side. It's all right there, easy enough to see with a flashlight and some parts are fairly easy to reach. The hose clamps are further up in the area where the pump is at and could be reached with one hand/arm to undo the clamp. Re-attaching the hose after removal would be a two hand job and I just don't see how anyone could get two hands up in there to do it.
Anyone care to chime in with your thoughts or suggestions. My shrink ray gun is on the fritz too, so I can't shrink myself to get up inside and be able to reach everything.
Thanks in advance for any helpful words.
