Toilet Removal
The bowl has come loose from the base of the toilet in my motorhome. The bowl is porcelain and the base (with the flush valve) is plastic. Looks like I will have to remove the toilet and turn it over ...

It's not a wax seal like a house - it's a rubber seal. They're usually installed on the toilet, which rests on a flange to which the toilet is bolted. The toilet is easy to remove - like a house toilet - 2 nuts.
Your bowl being loose from the base could be an issue depending on what's happened. I've read - but never experience personally - that early Dometic China bowls can break loose from the plastic base. Hopefully you'll find that you can just tighten the clamps. I have a new Dometic China toilet and there are clamps that you can tighten from underneath. Again, I haven't had to mess with it and I'm not sure you should have to mess with it.
To make a long story longer, the first new Dometic 320 I bought was apparently dropped from a tall building by UPS. The China part was dust. I kept everything else, though, as the seller didn't want the broken toilet back. If you have a similar model I can post pics of what the clamps, base and o-ring look like. Let me know...
