Make sure the water valve to the toilet is actually letting water into the fill valve. Turn off valve, remove from fill valve, run water into a pan to see pressure and confirm water flow. If water flow and pressure good, replace the fill valve.

I think it's not a wise decision to clean a toilet fill valve, rather than buy a new toilet fill valve and replace with the old one. Thanks.

Try using one of these A product called Kaboom Bowel Blaster and let it sit in the bowl for a while, then brush clean. This worked for me when others failed. You can try muriatic acid as a toilet bowl cleaner.Again let it sit for a while then brush and flush available from places like Home depot.Sometimes the toilets are not glazed as well as they should be you might call it a defect I call it poor quality control.

remove horseshoe shaped retaining clip. twist stem back and forth while pulling stem. if it still wont come out, you may have to buy a stem puller

Probably a mineral buildup. Pour a bucket of water into the bowl so that the bowl flushes but does not refill with water. In other words you want as little water in the bowl as possible so it wont dilute the cleaner. Use an acid cleaner like lime away in the bowl. Let it set for several hours or over night,. then scrub with toilet brush. Lime away is fairly safe but try not to splash it on your clothes or yourself. Wash it away if you do. You may have to repeat to finish the job.

change the flapper on the bottom otherwise it runs on

Adjust the level of the float, water level should be about 1/2" below top of overflow pipe. Slow filling can be due to a build up of calcium in fill vale, a partially blocked water valve, the washer many times gets deteriorated by the chlorine in the water, breaks up and clogs the fill line. Also many manufacturers (fluid-master in particular) place water restrictors inside the bottom of the fill tubes, which cause the water to fill much slower.

Not normal for that to happen but the jet faces on the two back jets may be turned off or down. Try turning the face of the jet clockwise and see if you get more water flow out of each jet. Rod US Parts Center

It's as simple as getting the right size vanity top and a tube of silicone

If you;re sure its under the toilet, look for a crack in the base, especially around the retianing bolts, or the wax bowl seal is gone, needs replacing.

The older styles have a screw at the end of the shaft where the fill valve is, turn the screw in and out to adjust float arm level. Newer ones have a plastic nut and bolt about midway along the shaft. Turn the nut to loosen slightly, push the float up or down and tighten the nut. Caution: The plastic bolt breaks easily so don't tighten the nut too much.

Depends on type. Rubber ones usually are suspended from the seat by an arm on either side, you pull it off the arms and replace the same way. Older ones slide down over the overflow tube.

Either the flapper is not closing completely or the water level is too high so water runs out the overflow pipe. Level should be set at 1/2" below top of pipe.

Hi Joey, The problem is likely that the switch is installed incorrectly. I'm sorry I don't recommend or advise any repair of a appliance that is water/electrical by anyone other than an authorized repair person. Furthermore, I would not use the appliance again until you have have professional repairs done.

I think fitting of your shower is not proper. You have to fit it properly if you can or you can call a nearest Plumber to solve your problem.

When there is a load on the motor and it is surging this is an indication of not enough water getting to the front of the pump. Check the water flowing inside the tub going from the jet opposite the suction cover. Sounds to me like you may be getting cavitation because the pump is pulling in too many air bubbles from the jet. Close the air control and/or move the direction of the eyeball from pointing at the suction cover and see if that helps. Rod US Parts Center

Right now you are having to turn it on/off by using the circuit breaker or just unplugging the pump right? Is this a button you depress or an electric button like you would find on a microwave? If it is a button you depress to turn it on/off then the problem is most likely the air switch located in the motor under the skirt of the tub. If it is an electric button then it may be the control box under the tub that needs to be replaced. Rod US Parts Center 888-521-6183

The roof vent for the toilets is shared. It is the pipe (on the roof) that lets water in the drain system. When clogged, it causes what you have. A garden hose placed in the roof vent (and turned on) may clear the blockage (could be leafs or pine straw or a dead bird). Needs to be cleared... I have used a plumbers snake with 100% success....but you may not have one...so the garden hose suggestion. Be careful on the roof.

I would say if you use heat use a heat gun. Better heat but be careful, they are much hotter than you think and you do not want to damage the finish.
