ATF: MPG - Toilet water line repair

Hi Guys,
Must have left some water in the line over the winter. I have a small leak just where the water line enter the Thetford toilet in my MPG 181. It seems to be where the right angle connector meets the body of the toilet. I tried to remove the toilet, removed the 2 floor bolts, but it will only lift up an inch or so. I don't want to force it. Any toilet repair experts out there with hints?
Of course the only rv repair shop within 100 miles is booked through the end of June.
Thanks!
Billy

While you are working on the supply line, you might want to think about adding a water shutoff valve for cleaning and other uses. Most all Home Depots stock a 1/2 inch PEX Sharkbite shutoff valve.

Thanks everyone. Turned out to be an easy repair. Needed a $10 part, the toilet water valve. Replaced and reinstalled the toilet in 10 minutes.
