If the electric motor on your marine toilet is running but the toilet isn’t flushing properly, here are some troubleshooting steps to try:
- Check for Blockages: Examine the flush hose and discharge line for any clogs or blockages. Use a rod or hose to try clearing any obstructions.
- Inspect the Macerator: The macerator is responsible for grinding up waste so it can be pumped out. Check the macerator blades to ensure they are not worn, damaged, or jammed.
- Test the Flush Switch: Ensure the flush switch is functioning properly by testing it with a multimeter. Replace the switch if it’s faulty.
- Inspect the Solenoid Valve: The solenoid valve controls the water flow to the toilet. Check that the valve is opening and closing correctly when the flush switch is engaged.
- Check the Motor: Verify that the electric motor is getting the correct voltage and amperage. If the motor is bad, it will need to be replaced.
- Examine the Toilet Bowl: Look for any issues with the toilet bowl itself, such as a cracked or damaged bowl that could be preventing proper flushing.
If you’ve gone through these troubleshooting steps and the issue persists, you may need to call in a professional marine technician to further diagnose and repair the problem.
