My 1993 Port Potti (ModelCassette PP C2 R) has recently stopped flushing water into the loo.

Does anyone know a likely cause or cure. I am reasonably able to fix things but would like to hear of other people's experience in sorting out this problem.

Thanks

Thanks for the advice. I locatedthe fuse and it had blown. For some reason the pump still did not work so I checked switches and contacts, all of which seemed OK but still no action.

In the end I took out the toilet roll cover to get at the pump, gave everything a wriggle and the flush is working again!

Still not quite sure what caused the trouble but am glad it is cured, at least for the time being. The Porta Potti photos were excellent.

Thanks again.

welcome,yes if the pump has not been working for some time they tend to stick and not work.when you switch on the pump of the toilet in this condition it blows the fuse.glad its sorted.

Hi i had same problem with my old van and found that it was dirt that was the problem i cleaned it out and replaced the fuse and had no more problems after

 that, also do you put some sterilising fluid in with the pink as i was told that this lubricates the pump and save the sticking problem when you leave the van over winter.
