Having a prob with thetford cassette, every time draw water from bathroom sink water starts flowing into the toilet and stays running for about 2mins, any ideas, poss airlock??

Do you have microswitches on the taps? If you do, maybe it's pressurizing the water when you operate it and the vale is leaking on the toilet.

Sounds like your toilet flush is being activated by the bathroom tap perhaps the wiring is crossed or shorting between the two might be a good idea to take out the toilet flush switch and check the wiring

my guess is the solenoid valve on the toilet is passing and its only apparent when the pump is activated by another tap ive never had to work on mine but others on here have said i can be removed and cleaned run the kitchen tap to see if toilet runs to confirm

Yep kitchen tap also starts toilet but not a flush just runs In, slow flow you might say

If it's been frozen, the solenoid valve in the toilet can crack and let through water when the other taps are turned on.

Depends on the model but it is usually visible when you remove the cassette,I had to change ours once and had to dismantle the toilet which wasn't to bad a job.I'm sure there's a video somewhere.
