Thank you! I did not expect to find a guide for a Toto toilet repair on a (mainly) electronics site, but here it is!

It worked perfectly when my toilet started running continuously on a Saturday evening.

I was able to take everything apart without even removing it from the tank, so it was a 15min fix!

Thank you!
