    Flush Pipe leaking

    Thank you all. He is indeed a rip off merchant. I could have done it myself, just remove the cistern. But I was quite busy elsewhere. Did it myself. Wanted more money, so with all the evidence, I am going to try and get him some real nice publicity. If the newspapers will accept it.

    Smart TV/Video Channel

    In the Handbook the illustrations they show in the photo is very feint, as seen in the attachment. So I cannot figure out the wiring. Having read, and re-read your posts, I am interpreting that it seems I have connected the VC to the TV wrongly.
