Hi All,

The cistern flush in our loo stopped working this morning. Its a modern
style with a pair of silver buttons placed in the middle of the cistern
lid. There seems to be no resistance when you push the buttons so Im
guessing would that maybe the float inside is stuck or something. The
problem is that I dont know how to remove the cistern lid. I dont want
to force it in case I break something. The lid doesnt just lift off as
with the old style side handle loos. It looks as though the button
assembly comes with it. Anybody any ideas? Do I just pull the lid up?

Thanks,
Matthew

Can you unscrew the button assembly by turning the button surround
anti-clockwise?

Press one button down and prise the other one off - a bit stiff.
With both buttons removed a screw will be revealed.

Not obvious it took me some time to prise hard enough - but it was a
rented house.
