    Problem with Vacuflush 2002 330

    Problem fixed and it appears that the Cust Svc rep I spoke with was correct. My mechanic called this morning and said everything is good to go. He said that he repaired the leak I caused, as well as replacing the 4 duck bill valves and the 2 toilet bowl ring seals. He said once that was done...

    Marlin 300 Transducer

    I replaced a Furuno FCV-582L (with an unknown but poor quality transducer) with an Airmar B-164 flushmount 1000w transducer connected to a Garmin 5212 through a Garmin GSD-24. The difference in the quality is unbelievable. This is not a top of the line combination but it is more detail than I...

    Problem with Vacuflush 2002 330

    Thanks for the continued advice & suggestions. Having been through similar situations I think you can both appreciate my concern in solving this as quickly as possible. Yesterday I contacted customer service at SeaLand. The rep listened patiently as I took her through the events listed above...

    Problem with Vacuflush 2002 330

    Georgemjr Things went from bad to worse. Monday morning I took the starboard panel off in the mid berth and saw that everything was pretty accessible - I took photos of the whole unit and many of the components. I flushed the head a couple of times and heard a low "pop" in the mid berth I...

    Problem with Vacuflush 2002 330

    Just when I thought I was home free I used the toilet and everything functioned well except that the vacuum pump will not shut off unless I flip the Head Switch on the 12 Volt panel. It seems like it is determined to have me perform maintenance on the entire system. I think I read that if the...

    Problem with Vacuflush 2002 330

    Georgemjr You the man. That was the solution to the problem. You sure saved me a lot of time and $ too. The first time I did it, the vacuum pump didn't seem to come on but after an hour or so I noticed that the water level had gone down a little. To put it in prospective, it probable slowed...

    Problem with Vacuflush 2002 330

    Recently developed 2 problems which are probably related. 1st problem - Vacuflush runs between flushes - it runs for about 4-5 seconds an then stops - duration between startups ranges from 1 1/2 minutes to 6 minutes with the majority in 3-4 minute range. 2nd problem - water is very slowly...

    Major leak in fresh water system 2002 330

    I got a call from the tech yesterday and found that the leak was coming from a broken valve on the water heater. Evidently from 12 years of pressure on the valve it finally gave way. This certainly wouldn't have been the first place that I checked but it was nice to find out that a simple...
