Don't know if it is sensible or not but never come across one that needs 240 v

Is the pump switched on?

 

[mikebeaches]

Is the pump switched on?

What he said - check the 12 volt electrics and the pump are both turned on.

Are you getting pumped water out of your taps? If so, then the toilet ought to work.

 

[Spanner]

Have you checked the fuse that is situated to the left of the cassette, just to the left of the yellow cap in the photo.
Check that you have 12 volts at the fuse.

Which Thetford loo have you got ?

 

[Minxy]

Do your batteries have any charge in them? If the lights come on then power isn't the issue.

 

[TUCANO]

You don't need electricity to simply empty some of your grey water down there
I do agree thought that if something should be working then you want to know why it isn't

 

[Two on Tour]

Some of the bench type Thetford loo have their own water tank and a submersible pump in the tank and the fuse is a pig to get to. We have one in an earlier van we had and had to replace the submersible pump that packed up.

Is it an Autosleeper you have (going by the decals)?

Does it flush with water from your main tank or from its own tank?

 

[Stealaway]

Even when connected to 220v you need to have your 12V switched on

Well done @Minxy Girl your the only one that's managed to get an answer from the OP so far.

 

[Minxy]

Okay, seeing as the OP was posting late on it must mean that the lights are working, ergo the 12v must be working.

So looks likes a fuse or wiring issue, or the pumps knackered.

So for the OP to answer yes/no to ... :

• When you turn the taps on does water come out? If so then the pump is okay.
• Did you remove and refitting the fuse? If so did this sort it (ie bad connection)?
• Have checked the fuse to see if it was kaput or okay?
• If kaput did you put a new one in and did it solve the issue?
• If the fuse looked okay did you still try a new one just in case and if so did it sort it?
• If it's still not working have you checked the wiring to make sure none of the connections have come loose?

Good luck.
