Toilet Spray Wand not working

Hello! I just noticed that the spray wand behind my toilet does not work. I have the manual for this toilet, a SeaLand Traveler Lite. Nowhere does it say in the manual or online if there is a shutoff valve, and I couldn't see one. I've only had my Chinook about 5 months and I've never used it. Now, however, I'd like to get it fixed. Does anyone know how if there is shutoff valve for this? Thanks so much!

You dont see it because its behind the kitchen cabinet back by the wall. The only way you will see it most likely is empty out the kitchen cabinet and possibly even yank the shelf. I found a hornet nest down in there on mine. :shock:

I just figured out that the only way it works if if the toilet is running. However, the water flow is dinky. I'm boondocking right now, maybe better flow if I connect to city water. Has anyone replaced the wand with a higher pressure one? This one seems no different than just flushing the toilet.

Kinda sounds like something is wrong with it. What I mean is, I have used those in other RV's, and while they are not "pressure washers," they definitely do the job differently than just flushing.

You can buy a new spray wand. They are a common RV part. Not saying that's going to fix it for sure, but maybe the sprayer head is clogged up with hard water deposits or something. Might or might not be worth it to you to start over with a known good one vs. troubleshooting further (you know your situation and skills better than I do).

Something isnt right then. The outdoor shower T's off long before water reaches the toilet unless something has been modified. Let me know if you dont figure it out, i can snap some pics of mine back in behind the kitchen sink. Hows the pressure at your kitchen sink? How about the shower pressure in the bathroom?
