[@bevjacquez]

Perfect. Thanks for getting right to the nitty gritty with no fluff. Best video I found for fixing our RV toilet that suddenly began over filling.

[@RVLivingYet]

Glad it helped, thanks for watching

[@shannonwatson5693]

I changed out the valve. The trailer is brand new. Still has water coming out in the bowl when the pedal is not depressed. Any other ideas?

[@michaelbarrsmusic]

So here's my story. Wifey flushed our toilet last night and released the pedal and it continued to flow full force. We quickly turned the water off. I found and watched your video. This morning I ordered from the link you posted at 8:30 am. I payed $12 extra and it was delivered by 11:30am!!!. Installed about 3 hours ago and used the Teflon recommendation. Dry as a bone! Thank you so much for your video👍

[@RVLivingYet]

Thats awesome, glad it helped. I keep a spare valve just in case now since this seems to be a common issue and don't want to get stuck without one.

[@GordonMorrison-nj2qs]

This video is AWESOME. It was so easy to understand, even I understood. And even I could do the repair. My issues were my age (70) and my lack of flexibility. LOL. The leaking valve did not have the clips attached and no screws. I found the broken clips inside. THANK YOU!!!!!!

[@RVLivingYet]

Glad it helped!

[@raptracktv6029]

I was literally going to buy another toilet thank you

[@RVLivingYet]

Glad it helped, thanks for watching!

[@prestoncox]

Really helpful. Didn't realize there were screws that held it in as well. Appreciate the straight-forward video

[@marytinkcom8730]

Thank you so much for the simple, yet complete. instructions! I'm a 69 year old woman who is determined to do what I can for repairs as have had some pretty bad luck with mobile RV repair people. I'm going to keep an extra valve kit on hand - one of those things that isn't too expensive but could be worth its weight in gold when needed!

[@RVLivingYet]

Glad it helped thanks for watching

[@jaibo1313]

I recently discovered my camper toilet leaking and this was the 1st video I came upon. Straight forward, easy repair is going to save me a ton of hassle of taking it into the shop. Its still under warranty but since I've had the camper, its been in the shop more then I have had it out so any time saved is time well spent!!! Thanks, and ordered the part from your link!!!

[@RVLivingYet]

Thanks for watching, we are glad the video helped. Thank you for using our link it really helps to support the channel. Good luck with your project!

[@WanderingLess]

Thank you for your video. I didn't have a Dometic I have Thetford but your video still greatly helped this gal find the right valve and install it! Thanks keep helping ppl you're great! Total cost 16 bucks!!!

[@LindaSpek]

Thank the Lord for You Tube. :) And thank you sir for your concise video. I came here after wrestling with trying to get the valve off my toilet and "OH, lookee here, there's a hidden screw at the back keeping it all together" !! Don't know if it has been mentioned in other comments but for those with tight access (like in Springdale Mini's) it would help if you have a mini mirror on a telescopic arm, and I found that the screw head was also a socket head, so a 1/4 socket/7mm on a 1/4 drive ratchet worked well. Thanks and happy trails

[@BobHennen-p3h]

Very helpful! And right to the point without making the video longer than needed. Thanks!

[@RVLivingYet]

[@susanhansen4253]

Thanks! Due to your video, I was able to get my valve replaced easily. Used your tips to avoid the nasty mess, and now have a leak-free toilet! Thanks again!

[@RVLivingYet]

Glad it helped

[@TheAprillevans17]

Appreciate this quick tutorial that saved a ton of money and headache! Ordered part from amazon. Your video helped tremendously. Thank you for not making this video longer than necessary. Really appreciate the help!

[@donaldtimmons7675]

Very helpful thank you! I ordered the part on Amazon $40, then I remembered in your video you said it was about $20, so I canceled my first order, followed the link in your video and saved $20 so thanks again, great video!!

[@jessemclean8702]

One of the best Tutorials I have watched. Thank you

[@RVLivingYet]

Thanks for watching

[@judyjackson6969]

Your video really helped my husband. He is going to install the valve himself because the RV place was 3 months behind & couldn’t get to our RV.

[@RVLivingYet]

So glad the video helped! Thanks for watching.

[@mikebushert594]

Thanks Man, you added the important cautionary & thorough maintenance tips for a successful repair when dealing with scary WATER issues. My pump would not shut off (intermittently started). Took awhile but there it was, toilet valve on a 2 yr. old rig. RV service recommends carrying 2 spare items with our other various nuts,bolts, wire etc. a toilet valve and water pump. Maybe, personal choice.

[@RVLivingYet]

When it comes to plumbing issues in the RV I like to carry spares and a sharkbite cap to close off water lines if needed until I can get a part, seems like something is always leaking. Thanks for watching!

[@darylosborn6190]

We have the exact same model and issue with the continuous water flow into the bowl and a leaky valve. Our bowl setup is a little tighter in the back but It looks so simple, I’m in for changing it. Thanks, that was a great how to video.

[@RVLivingYet]

Youre welcome and thanks for watching and commenting it really helps us keep making videos. Good luck with your project!

[@KarisaSieverding]

This is exactly what we have going on. This video is easy to follow and straight forward! I really appreciate it! Question, what is the best way to cap the inlet line? We don't use the back toilet. Thank you

[@kelownadug]

great video.. learned the hard way as to what happens when you miss a step when winterizing.... cracked valve!

[@wolfpackrc]

Good video. Yall did good.

[@RVLivingYet]

Thanks for watching

[@g.wayneberkshire7137]

Watched to verify the replacement process. Just as i had hoped its quick, simple & easy. Thanks!

[@sierrasnowball]

Thank you for the great video! Just getting out on my own and living in my RV between homes and had a momoent of panic this morning at 5 am with the water on full blast and wouldn't shut off! Had to let it flood the RV while I quickly shut the water off outside, but nothing 5 or 6 towels couldn't mop up. I'll post back when the part has been changed. Thanks again!

[@RVLivingYet]

Welcome to RV life, ways something to fix.

[@sierrasnowball]

So the continuing saga of the toilet conumdrum is that I replaced the valve ($65 at the local RV store but I opted to wait 3 days for the part to arrive from Amazon for $11.99 as I had a watering can for the toilet and a 2 gallon igloo cooler for sink water) and changed it. It started leaking a few days later and my neighbor asked me if I had a water restrictor on my outside hose. It accidentally got left off the hose on my last trip! The RV manual says water pressure should be between 30-50%. I put it back on, bought another valve and also added an on/off valve to the water line going into the toilet in case it leaks again. All of this cost under $50 compared to a visit from an RV rapair person. Then I had a clog while I was draining the black water, but filled the tank up with hot water, let it sit for a couple hours and all is good! Thanks again!

[@arrellcavanaugh9404]

Very helpful thank you! Didnt know about the screws and was starting to doubt my strength vs those clips haha

[@RVLivingYet]

Glad it helped

[@nathanseaman963]

Thank you for the video! We are new to travel trailer systems and had a similar problem.

[@jenicacrail9989]

Thank you! I used your video to fix my toilet today and it worked perfectly! Huge help.

[@RVLivingYet]

Glad it helped!

[@DowellMarta]

So glad to be able to fix this ourselves, saving lots of time and $$$. Thanks!!

[@winnerscreed6767]

this is a great video, it doesn't even matter that I don't think I have the same toilet. The step by step walk thru and complete explanation of everything is soo helpful. I now know what to look for when/if this starts to happen. This is a save for later vid. so far all I have is the inside toilet bowl seal leaking and once or twice a year I use plain chapstick on a q-tip to lube that up and it works.

[@RVLivingYet]

Thank you for the great comment, we try to explain the subject matter as thoroughly as possible.

[@RICECOOSBAY]

I am thrilled!!!! Going to try and repair mine!

[@kenmcdonald5664]

This was exactly what happened in our RV. Thanks so much for your repair video!

[@RVLivingYet]

You're welcome, glad it helped.

[@jdleitner]

This is exactly the same situation I have and until I saw your video, I was freaking about having to remove the toilet. 😅 U the man!

[@RVLivingYet]

Glad we had the solution you were looking for. Thanks for watching!

[@12oobandit]

Thank you from the UK, Cross threaded when fitted and thought i would need complete new toilet at £280. Just ordered the valve. Cheers...

[@RVLivingYet]

Awesome, glad it helped!

[@RVLivingYet]

Oh, that is great! Yes, the valve is way cheaper than a new toilet.We are all about the cheaper route. Glad the video was able to help you. Take care...

[@mp7943]

Looked easy...now to go change mine. Cracked fitting after the freeze and I'm praying that the water heater is ok!

[@RVLivingYet]

Good luck, thanks for watching

[@khanhdinh6518]

Thank you! Saw that I had a leak today and found your video, Really appreciate it!

[@RVLivingYet]

Youre welcome, glad it helped.

[@JamesL5150]

Thank you so much for this video. I am Texas and just had everything freeze up on me. Ran out of propane so even stuff inside froze, including this valve. I can't even flush now, but even before the Great Texas Freeze of 2021, when I put this toilet in Brand new it was doing the same thing as yours, though not continuous but it does continue to seep out for 5 -10 minutes. I think it is just a junk part from factory. I do notice that on the one on Amazon it says "re-engineered" so hopefully it is better than the one from factory. Anyway, thanks so much for showing how this thing comes apart, I don't have quite as much space behind as you but am going to attempt this hopefully without removing the toilet.

[@RVLivingYet]

Glad the video helped and good luck on your project. Try to stay warm and safe travels.

[@lisaadkins4667]

Great 'how to' video! Simple instructions. Got the part in 2 days and easily fixed my leak. Thank you!

Yep I would stock up on those repair products while you can.

Super helpful thank you! I just replaced ours with no issues and no more leaking 🎉

[@OldCurmudgeon3DP]

Looks simple enough to replace. I already had to swap that crappy crimp for a hose clamp last year. Just did the 2 on the outside sink due to leaks. Now the toilet valve drips a bit when flushing. Time to replace it.

[@RVLivingYet]

Thanks for watching

[@ajquimby121]

Ordered a valve today! Thx for instructions!

[@richardmeppen5735]

Great video! I have the same problem with my 310 toilet. It would fill up and over flow even with the pump turned off and not hooked up to any water supply. I just ordered the valve $18.99 from Amazon. Thanks

[@RVLivingYet]

[@ericwearne9669]

This was very helpful. It is always hard to figure out how to remove the old valve, when you can't get a good view of it.

[@miasapountzis8626]

Thank you for the video. Very helpful. I have.the dometic 310 tiolet. The valve I replaced and ordered For $13 has 2 tabs, one on top and one on the bottom. My camper I bought brand new last year, they only installed one screw out of two. Anyway your video was helpful since it's hard to see behind the toilet. Also, the sticker with the toilet model number is located at the base in the back of the tiolet next to the flooring. That will give you the model number and other info for your tiolet. Thank you!

[@RVLivingYet]

Glad it helped!

[@juliemcdonough3946]

you ROCK!!tysm I don't have to remove the toilet or pay for a service call - this is happening every year after the winter the toilet leaks and it frustrates me to cussing!!! now I know how to fix it myself!

[@RVLivingYet]

Glad it helped, thanks for watching.

[@TravNasty520]

Thank you for making the video that’s exactly what my toilet is doing. I’ve never had it overflow but it runs a little bit which causes the water pump to turn on really quick and off which I’m sure is not good for water pump and it’s super annoying when you’re trying to sleep so I usually just turn my water pump off when I’m not using any water. Hopefully this fixes the problem!

[@RVLivingYet]

Glad I could help!

[@renaemcrae1910]

You made this look simple. Thank you.

[@fishaddict2]

Excellent video. Only suggestion is to wrap the teflon tape before you put the valve back in.

[@RVLivingYet]

We did at the 6:10 mark

[@fishaddict2]

@@RVLivingYet Sorry for the confusion. What I meant was to wrap the teflon tape on the threads BEFORE inserting the valve into the water valve housing so that you're not wrapping in an awkward position.

[@andrewosborne6666]

Did this just today, thanks for the help! The toilet in my lady's horse trailer was getting no water, but no leaks. I ordered the valve and replaced it... up on examination of the original, I saw that the little filter was clogged by what appeared to be little white chunks like you get when you cut PVC. Cleaned the filter and held onto the original as a spare.

[@NoFixedAddress]

Good how-to video. We have been lucky so far in not having had any problems. Now I know what to do WHEN we have problems. Seems inevitable. Thanks for posting.

[@RVLivingYet]

Thanks for checking out the video, it seems like something always needs to be fixed or maintained but thats have the fun. Never a dull moment!

[@tammyblanchette704]

Really great video. I was able to replace the valve quickly and no more leaks. A couple of things to note: my old valve was hard to remove because I didn’t know there was another clip at the bottom. It had to be depressed from underneath. Yours seemed to come out much easier. Also, my package didn’t have any nuts for the screws. (I wish it did.) But it did include 2 extra tiny screens that fit inside the valve. I’m assuming that’s the piece that most frequently fails and can be replaced without purchasing a new valve.

Usually should have screw holes but it's okay if it's a little loose.

[@cariskel4169]

Thanks for the video. I'm not sure if the valve is my problem. Water is dribbling out of the little round valve looking thing that comes up behind the toilet set, almost level with the toilet seat itself. I cannot find a name for it. Its the little thing that the back part of the rv toilet seat covers. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Im not sure if that is a serviceable part, you can check on Dometics website, if not you may just have to replace the toilet.
