macerator stopped working
Hello all,
Just returned from short trip in our 07/08 RT190P and experienced macerator problems.
The volume or force of the flow seemed less, and the macerator motor seemed less noisy as well. Clearly it took longer to empty but was still working.
Tried to empty the holding tanks after getting home but this time the macerator was not pumping at all, despite hearing its motor trying to work.
I have tried churning the contents of the tank with my black tank water spray cleaning wand, as well as back washing through the discharge hose. Unfortunately neither has helped.
Now I have a full black tank (mostly water, no solids) and no way to empty it! Winterizing will be a problem.
Does anyone have any ideas on the problem and/or solutions?
Many thanks,
Arvie1
