Has anyone ever had the problem of the vacuflush toilet blowing its fuse when the vacuum pump is turned on? The problem is in the forward head so we have been ignoring it for some time. We started to look at it as we were on on the boat and having to share our head with my son is getting old.
We have changed the duckbills and the bellows along with its gaskets but still when we replace the fuse behind the switch for the vacuum generator it starts to run, quickly begins to slow down and pops the fuse.
I have even gone so far as to use a plunger. My wife can hear water getting to the holding tank when I use the plunger. I have reached into the toilet and confirmed there is no blockage at the base.
The other toilet has a separate vacuum generator and is working fine. It does share the same holding tank so I am assuming it is not a vent problem.
Hopefully someone has an idea that I have not thought about.
On the upside I am alot more familiar with my vacuflush system now and there did not seem to be much in the way of fecal material in the liquid we have dealt with.
