URGENT :Toilet Flush not working
******************************
I need to repair my toilet. The flush is not working.

I bought a kit from Walmart.

I have never done this before.

Would a person with a little handyman/woman work experience be able to fix

it ?
or do I need to get a handyman or specialist ?

Pls. let me know.

is there anything special i need to do ?

Pls HELP !

Any pointers ? suggestions ?

Thanks


I'm no pro, but in the bottom of the toilet tank there is a plug or a flap
that is lifted usually by a chain connected to the lever. When you push the
lever down, the chain pulls up on the flap and it flushes. The chain may
have fallen off or something similar. Of course this is assuming that you
have water in the tank.

PS: you can make a toilet flush by dumping a gallon or two of water quickly
into the bowl in case you need to use the facility before it is repaired.
