Troubled toilet 26BH

[Merlinspop]

Greetings... I've had issues in the past with my toilet valve spritzing, particularly when someone weighing exactly my weight is sitting on it. Took it to the dealer twice, but neither time were they able to replicate the problem, let alone fix it. The last time the tech said he uninstalled it and reinstalled it and it worked perfectly.

Now my family of 4 are in night one of five and it started spraying like a garden hose, without anyone on it. And of course, we're 150+ miles from home. I guess I'll arrange to drop it off at a Camping World that's on our way home.

Is there any way to isolate the toilet so we can use the sinks or shower without the toilet spraying all over the wall? There's no supply valve visible behind the fixture.

Thanks.

Bruce.

Oh, yeah... It's a 2010.

Our 2010 has the aqua magic V. I think they are known for a bad water valve. I just ordered one off of amazon for less than $20. I also cut my supply line with a tube cutter and installed a cutoff switch so I can turn off the water to the toilet and still use all of the sinks and showers.

It's regular PVC? So if nothing else I can cap it off then use the shower wand as the water source to flush.

This was a common problem on 2010`s, including mine. Check out this thread on the valve issue.

Camping World didn't have the valve in stock but ordered it for me PLUS shipping cost. Luckily, I checked with my buddy Google and found another RV shop 10 miles further down the road with one on stock. Had to stop back by CW to get refunded. 3.5 hours and 100 miles round trip to get the valve. Less than 15 minutes to install it.
