Thetford toilet will not flush?

Thetford toilet the bench type 1990 erra will not flush. the motor runs. I can hear it. But no water comes out. I assume either a pipe has come off or the impelor has come off. but how do I get in to see or fix it.

The Thetford toilet is a C200 CWE type, I have replaced the fuse and still nothing happens, I am in Spain and it's quite urgent. Thanks

if looking back in for more replies follow the info below. from what you say sounds like the flush pipe is off or there is no water in tank as bill cox says.
If you want to go manual have word with Thetford under 'Ask thetford' If your's is a C2 with the toilet roll holder to right(facing toilet then the cup that holds the roller removed is where you would refit the manual flush, it's same size as the elec flush knob other side that stays in place.

for safety reasons which i agree with thetford do not offer repair advice for fridges. refer to service centre

pull out the toilet roll holder and you will be able to access the pump. check for blocked or loose pipe.
also check that the pump is in water, sometimes the level gauge pipe can lie.
