I recently posted a topic about my thetford toilet which had stopped flushing,  we've since bought a new pump....

after using a test lamp, we have power to pump, but pump still wont work,  we have tested the new pump and old pump directly on a battery and both work,

we have had a feed onto the micro switch and this seems fine,

could anyone shed some light on what else it could be,  we will be using the caravan again this week and really need it fixed..

 

thanks

Hi Lynn, If you have power to the pump when you press the flush and the pump fails to operate then the chances are you've have high resistance somewhere in the loom to the toilet, you will need to trace the loom back from the pump checking all the possible connections with a meter renewing any that are corroded/damaged, the last one i had like this the connection was under the toilet which involved removing the toilet completly, I hope your's is easier to find.
