I have a sterling Europa with a Thretford toilet, it's been a nightmare from day one, in the past I have changed the reed switch and the control panel, now I have corrosion at the plug that connects to the control panel.

Anyone know were I can get a new plug? Leisure spares direct don't do that item, and tell me that it would be a waste of time phoning Thretford, any how I did and after numerous attempts never got through.

Don't think you can purchase just the plug, you have to get the full wiring harness instead, which includes a new pump.

If you have the panel out may be worth a trip to a Maplin store with it as they have several types of connectors

Hi Jack, could you solder wires directly onto the board? or, (I'm not sure if it needs to be unpluggable or even how many wires are involved) a different plug/socket arrangement, likely to be cheaper than a full wiring harness complete and pump.
