I just replaced the seal on the Dometic 210 in my 2007 Discovery. It was leaking and I finally decided to replace the seal after watching your video. When I removed the bowl I found that someone had installed the seal wrong, with the thick piece on the bottom and the thin piece on the top. I installed the new parts as you showed, and all seems to be good!! We are in the fourth of year living full time in our Discovery, no home other than the Discovery. Many things have needed to be repaired on our 16 year old coach, and TH-cam has been a lifesaver!! Thanks so much for your video!!
OMG You thanks for that tutorial. I own a business and we travel. 3 grown ass men in a little trailer w a leaky seal. No good. I put that seal in and my trailer stopped smelling like a sewer in 15 minutes. Your the best!
I have to thank you so much for this video, after watching it I decided to take my toilet apart as in the video and clean everything including the seal which had calcium deposits around the rubber seal, I soaked the rubbers in CLR and then washed them with soapy water and then cleaned the rest of the mechanism, then reassembled and turned on the water and hey presto all is working well. Again many thanks for the very informative video. David.
i got the Sealand which is compatible with the dometic for $16 something. and after listening to you i almost sent it back but i will use it and maybe report after 6 months.? THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting this video. i ve been watching the guys and let me tell you i can understand better when it comes from a lady like me lol. thank you now i have the confidence i need to go tackle this on a Monday afternoon lol ...
update. i just did this. the seal i had was an original part more than 16 years and nothing like this rubber junk which cost me a lot of effort to get centered. If you have a bad hand like me you will pbby need help because the plastic bracket things the ones that say front, are more difficult to put on . all and all not to difficult
I was a problem installing the seal and when you read the instructions(which I didn't have) and you showed which part went on the bottom and once I saw that, I knew I had the seal in the wrong places. A quick removal and reversal of the seals and BINGO, the water was held in the bowl. Thanks for your video
@Freedom Chaser It did an awesome job on this, Was great seeing a lady doing it btw😀 I just switched mine out today, and it is perfect .. gonna sub ya up
Thanks for making this video, it was just what i needed to learn. I just purchased my first rv and it has the same toilet. Can you tell me if i press down half way on the foot pedal...shouldn't the ball stay closed and allow me to fill the toilet with water to a level I prefer? Mine doesn't do this.
Thanks for watching. Yes, if you press the foot pedal down slightly, you should be able to have water come out without completely opening the ball so that water doesn't go down the hole. I'm not sure why yours is opening so much. Maybe try less pressure when stepping on the pedal?
I tried pressing less as you suggested but no luck. Looks like i will need to troubleshoot now that i know its not working properly. Thanks for responding.
So I went ahead and purchased the Dometic brand ball seal kit and replacement ball kit and installed both, which solved the issue I was having, not being able to just fill water only. Hope this info will help someone else having the same issue.
Sure. This is what I purchased but it was priced a little more than this link shows. Also the package on this one looks a little different. www.ebay.com/itm/114835337906?ViewItem=&item=114835337906&vxp=mtr
Thank you for the instructions... The new seals I bought off Amazon 🫤 did not come with them, so I put it back together the same way I took it apart and wouldn't you know😮 it is wrong🫡 thank you again!
I ordered a kit this morning for my 510 Sealand. This 2 year old video is the one I needed to see. Thanks!
Great! Glad to help :)

You are so very welcome 😀
Thankyou for your time and verifying my toilet model. 😊
Thank you for watching :)
Handyman here, actually followed your instructions on how to replace this seal. Piece of cake, and gloves of course. Thanks! "This side up".
Awesome! Thanks for watching :)
That actually looks way easier than I was afraid of. Thank you for making it less intimidating- you got me to stop procrastinating finally!
Excellent! Thanks for watching

You're welcome. I am glad you got it figured out and I was able to help.
Great info, also dont forget to inspect ball for build-up of lime , calcium , damage Or Knicks !
Thanks!
@Freedom Chaser It did an awesome job on this, Was great seeing a lady doing it btw😀 I just switched mine out today, and it is perfect .. gonna sub ya up
That must be an older style toilet. Pretty easy replacement! Way better than paying a tech. Way to go!
Oh yes way cheaper! Super easy to read instructions too. Thank you
Thank you for the thorough description. This was tremendously helpful as I am preparing to replace our seal!! You are the best. God Bless

Great video! Do you have the Dometic part number listed on the outside of the plastic sleeve the seal came in? Thanks.
Thank you. No sorry I do not have that info any longer.
Great video!
Thank you Sharon! ❤

Do you have a link for the seals u bought please 🙏
I do not have the link. I believe I got it form Ebay though.
Can you please give me a link for the seal?
Sure. This is what I purchased but it was priced a little more than this link shows. Also the package on this one looks a little different. www.ebay.com/itm/114835337906?ViewItem=&item=114835337906&vxp=mtr
Dang a real shitter here. Porcelain and everything. Cool shirt.
These rv toilets are getting nicer these days. Thanks Dave
