Jabsco Deluxe Flush... doesnt flush

The toilet on our 49M ("Millie") toilet is blocked, the manual suggests a blocked non-return valve.

Will I have to remove the toilet bowl to get at the valve and associated pump etc?

Does anybody know another way of getting things moving?

Hi
Is anything happening at all. Is the motor running?

David and Dot,

Many thanks, I THINK it's sorted; somebody suggested gently massaging the non-return valve or joker valve t see if I could dislodge whatever was blocking it.

I prodded about gently with an old toothbrush and followed this with several panfulls of warm water the flush/empty improved and sems OK now.

Original symptoms? noisy motor on "empty", pan too full to "flush" and a swirling mass of liquid.

Cheers

John and Gill
