C260 wiring

[lorne]

Evening all.

We have purchased a van and the c260 toilet doesn't flush.
I've been in the building trade most of my life and fixed my cars where needed, so I'm not a novice but my knowledge only goes so far, and I've never touched one of these toilets.

What I've learnt so far is that the pump and switch work fine, but there is no power running to the switch. I tested the switch by running a wire from the battery.

So I have removed the upright trim from within the cassett compartment and tested the wires attached to the circuit board. There is no live.
What I don't know is if those wires are the first ones coming into the van, or if the wires go to the switch first?

If they are the first wires, are they joined underneath the cassett housing?
If they aren't joined, then there is a break in the wiring, or possibly a dodgy fuse board...however, I am getting a live feed from the fuse in the fuse board.

Would love some help if there is anyone able to.

Many thanks
Lorne

You will have a master 12v switch (in my case on the panel by the door) that will allow any 12v appliances to work - lights, water pump and the loo flush. The fuse board on the distribution unit panel will also have a fuse for the loo. Furthermore there is (but not always) a fuse within the cassette compartment itself. Worth a try - sorry if this is underestimating your skills or knowledge!

Thanks for your reply

I have tried all of the above, unfortunately none of it worked.
There is no live feed from the cassette Area up to the switch, it seems like there is a faulty wire/connection from the fuseboard to the toilet.

I would like to get underneath the cassette housing to see if there is a connection, but it doesn't look easy to remove....
