Puddle in front of toilet

We have noticed a puddle in front of the toilet when we go camping. Do not know where it is coming from? I have to put a rag at the base of the toilet to keep the water from moving over to the wall. Do I need to pull the toilet to see where it is coming from? or could it be a leaky line? hairline crack in the toilet? Any suggestions would help. Tks

Have you told DH to aim better?:)

Check the band clamp around the base of the bowl and the toilet base. If it's loosened, it will leak there, between the seals.

If it's not a loose clamp, a failed water valve is the likely culprit. An easy change out. Clear instructions are provided in the package. If it's a Dometic / Sealand 210 as most are, it's part # 385314349. Most larger Rv stores will have one in stock.

Baseball5, welcome to the forum. This is a great place with a lot of good shared information and help.
I doubt that you have a cracked bowl. You may have a crack or loose fitting in the valve mechanism.
At the top of the page, you can look in 'TOOLS' then 'Manuals" to find an owners manual for the toilet. I do not know which toilet you have so this may or may not help you. Or, you can just LOOK RIGHT HERE.
When you get if fixed, come on back and let us know how.

Peace
Dave

Also check the valve at the top rear area of the bowl. Just make sure the valve is pushed into the rubber grommet. It that grommet is the culprit though, it usually only puddles at the rear of the toilet. I guess it could run to the front if the floor was out of level. Still worth a look see.
