    A little tip for you if you are worried about scratching the unit with a screwdriver, use a rubber sucker (think satnav holder) and it'll pop off with no damage or marks. At work I've used the proper glazing suckers but I think a windscreen sucker would work just as well

    I got a new bathroom installed 2 weeks ago and got a similar unit to yours. Historically, I'v always fixed my own cistern issues but thought I was buggered after it was installed and thought I'd be calling a plumber out every time something happened! Your video has given me hope and inspiration. I thank you from the bottom of my cistern!

    Well Done Kerry. Your video was spot on. Sorted my problem out this morning, without the need for an expensive plumber. Scratching my head, as to how to access the cistern. You live & learn eh. Bit of added advise, I used a plastic spatula, in case of any damage to the front panel. Without your excellent video I wouldn't have had a clue. Well done again Lady !!

    Kerry, thank you so much for doing this video. I had the same problem as you,the water didnt stop after flushing. I didn't have a clue what to do or even how to open the unit.. Your video was the first to show on google, your 2 minute video was a lifesaver,it worked a treat even the jiggling worked 😊. Saved me the expense of a plumber
    4 years later your video is still helping people. 👏 🌟

    Perfect. Thank you! I wondered if I could pry that panel open but I never would have had the confidence to try it without seeing this. 2 minutes later and we're no longer having to listen to the constant trickling of water through our pipes!

    I've watched about 15 videos and this is the video that helped me the most......I was ready to break the unit to get into it. Once inside I fiddled around like you said and now it's working. I hope it stays working now. Thank you!

    • @kerrydita1
      @kerrydita1  Рік тому +1

    Thank you so much. Out toilet is about 15yrs old and the flush stopped working. We popped the panel out as you suggested and found the plastic tube had split or perished and needed replacing, a cheap fix. Thanks again for showing us how to access the inside of the unit. Linda and George

    Found your post on the morning I had a similar problem, and I too wondered how you get to the inside, so I was able to stop the constant water flow.
    That allowed me to get hold of a plumber, who found it was in need of a couple of parts to be replaced. But thanks for showing me how to get access to it, as like you, it looked a bit nasty to get a screwdriver to remove the panel. Thanks Geoff

    OMG.. I have called out plumber twice for this problem. They took the whole top off. I just fixed it myself in less than 2 minutes. The worst bit was the confidence to get the screw driver out. Can't thank you enough xxx👍

    • @kerrydita1
      @kerrydita1  3 роки тому +1

      I can’t believe those plumbers taking it all apart like that. Surely they must’ve known how to access these! Wow! That must’ve cost a fortune.. Well I’m certainly glad my upload has helped you to fix it yourself now. Xx

    My cabinet looks just like yours!.. and I am hoping to access the flush tank like you did!... ❤

    Well done for a good video post, there isn't much information around on taking this panel off, our problem was that the flush was intermittently sticking in and so I wanted to spray some silicone maintenance spray on it. I removed this panel by using a Allen key held in some pliers which you can feed in and turn so the L shape is behind the panel then you just give it a firm pull and it pops out off the clip without the risk off scratching the front fascia

      I know exactly how you felt.. I was panicky and worried it was going to cost me a fortune. Then I turned to UA-cam and found nothing 🙄 and panic set in. So despite my awful Wiltshire accent, I bodged this video together to try and save others the worry and stress. I'm so glad you found this and it helped. 😊

    Thank you, I;ve been wondering for months how to get to the tank without ripping the work surface up!... This was so easy and allowed me to fix the toilet for a whole £7 rather than spending probably a hundred on a plumber.

    • @gilesey3
      @gilesey3 Рік тому

      Could you actually get to the tank. Mine is flushing but sometimes won’t stop, then goes loose. I think it could be an internal washer. I’m worried I’ll have to remove the lower panel too which looks locked in by the toilet?

    • @nathanwebb4959
      @nathanwebb4959 Рік тому

      @@gilesey3 yeah the tank had a cut out at the front, so the water went up to a certain level and anything above that level was cut away to epose the insides of the tank. Assuming it looks like the video, the front panel should pop off dead easy, just stick a bllunt kitchen knife or something thin down the side of it. Ours had the same issue in that it flushed and wouldn't stop... just replaced the unit in the middle of the tank (under water) and job done. Whilst im not saying that's what your specific problem will be, it didn't take a lot of figuring out with a little bit of observation of how the interrnal components worked.

    • @nathanwebb4959
      @nathanwebb4959 Рік тому

      once you remove the upper panel, it should give you just about enough space to unscrew anything youneed, including below the tank. if its anything like ours anyway. @@gilesey3

    Thank you for your very helpful video, we have recently moved into a property that has one of these concealed units & the idiots have placed the flush button on the front that is concealed by the lid & cover which would have been better positioned on the top.hopefully a new blank front can be obtained & the button positioned on the top.
