How do I fix my thetford c4 cassette waste holding tank valve blade ?

the valve blade that closes over the opening in the waste tank for a c4 cassette toilet will not close properly. the round disc appears to be loose on the system that closes it. is it repairable and does the tank come apart? It does not appear that it does.

Same thing happened to me over this weekend....called local dealer and they said the only way is to replace the tank!! $158

The only difference between c4,3 & 2 is the C2, has its own electric flush pump in the resevoir tank/flush tank accessable after removing the toilet roll holder housing, just prise it up out of hte tank. The C3, mostly in motorhomes ,is run from the main onboard water tank pum and is operated by an electric none return valve in the toilet unit. Finally the C4 is a manual pump which apparently can be changed to an electric one. All three waste holding tanks are basically the same, your problem may be the rubber seal needs replacing, and yes they are repairable that is the parts on the tank are all replaceable, no the tank does not come apart..

Have a look on here Carlos. I repaired my C2 using this site but I'm sure the C3 & C4 are similar in most respects. Thanks to Bob for the link.
