Traveler Toilet
I have A Traveler toilet with A bad vacuum breaker. Everything I read says to just pull it out. This one has like A jam nut on it. I have taken the nut loose but still can't get it out. I also can't find anything on it. I also can't find A model # on it. Any help would be apreciated.549Views0likes0CommentsRe: Dometic Refer Recall - Possible Fire Hazard -Update 2/13/07

Yes, I agree, by what is the fusible link inside the sheet metal housing for? is it there to cut power during a flash fire, or to cut power if the element draws too much power? Tim The fuseable link is to kill power in case of fire. It is connected in series with the thermodisc in the DC power line. Hope this helps.

Tim There was no explanation of the problem except potential fire hazard. No mention of the heating element. It was pretty much this is the kit and how to install it. We did install 1 on A unit that was in A coach. Took about 30 min. The kits are available to anyone that has A Dometic account at no cost. You do not have to have the serial # to order them and the owner does not have to have the recall letter for you to do the work. So Monday I am going to order A dozen kits to keep on my service truck. Right now I have 5 units lined up for recall. Another thing, Even if the cooling unit has been replaced the kit needs to be installed. Hope this answers A few questions.

The purpose for the shielding is to contain the fire. There are 2 thermal switches added during the recall modifications. The 1 thermal disc mounted to the boiler housing and another different melting type mounted behind the boiler housing. I attended A Dometic class yesterday and the recall was the main thing talked about. Dennis329Views0likes0CommentsRe: Breakdown Information
