Toilet flush not working

briancarr82 · 2019-09-27 20:45:28

Hi all, the button for toilet flush is not working, it seems to be the small cable on the pulley/leaver is damaged. I'm not sure what exactly i need to replace, can i just replace this or will it involve buying a full part. Sorry, not diy savvy. Any help appreciated. Cheers

Straightforward repair.
Cable is not a spare part.

Go to your local plumbing supplier or look online.
You need to buy a McDee Wirquin flush valve.
The main valve un-hooks from the connection at the bottom of the cistern. There is one in the packaging, look at it to see how they come apart.
Pop in the new one and connect the cable to the push button.
