340 Sundancer with vacu flush system. There is no water going into the bowl when flushing. The vacuum works OK to suck out the contents of the bowl, but there is no water being pulled into the bowl when flushing. I sprayed some water from the dock hose in while flushing and it was sucked from the bowl with no problem - so I don't think there is a clog. The water pump is working for the sinks, etc. Any ideas?

Clean the filter screen in the toilet valve. Where the blue line connects.
 
Is this a problem that just started? Depending on your plumbing system you may have a valve bank to isolate or turn off specific circuits. Maybe the head valve is turned off
 
Can you lift up on the lever to add water to the bowl?
Lifting the lever did in fact add water to the bowl. Now it seems to be working normally again (water comes into the bowl after flushing). It is possible that fixed it; or it was some other intermittent issue.
