You must remove the lid to gain access to the blades. Make sure you unplug the unit first. When reinstalling the lid place a little soap water around the gasket to help with the seal. thanks for using FIXYA. Jeff

Water pressure makes the unit kick on and off. Somehow water is draining back into the pump casing, check the flapper on the check valve inside the discharge elbow, it may not be closing properly or may be obstructed allowing waste water to drain back into the pump. Also check the flapper on the flush valve inside the toilet tank (water closet) the flapper may be leaking water into the bowl and from the bowl into the pump casing sitting behind. As far as making a loud noise, there could be a blockage on the drain pipe, blade or impeller. The discharge pipe may be loose, not clamped against the wall and is rattling against the wall when in use.

Definitely there is a problem with the pressure chamber, it may need to be replaced. The pressure chamber is were all the electrical components are sitted and is what turns the unit on and off. You can always order parts throught Saniflo's technical dept. 800-571-8191

The pump in the lift chamber has quit working. Check the power to it and if that's not the problem then you will have to get into where the pump is to see if the float is hung up. I know it's a nasty job but someone has to do it.
