Loose Thetford Toilet valve spring - need photo

Maxcamp · May 13

Thetford cassette toilet model C403L on 2021 boondock TAB.
While cleaning the TAB compartment holding the cassette, dislodged the valve actuator spring.
Can someone tell me where and how the spring attaches to the lever? Is there a clip missing? No detent on the metal rod end, spring slips off.
The apparent slot is not where it goes.
A picture would be great- can someone remove their cassette and snap a clear photo looking up at this assembly?

the spring attached to an piece of plastic with a hole in it that is missing from your photo. it has been broken off. Happened to me and I just ordered a replacement part

@Tabnero, can you post the part number? Maybe a pic when you get it in as well. Thanks.
My fix works well, but the spring is stretched and I wonder if it will twang off or break while in use at some later date.

pages 34 and then 44 through 48 or so. not sure if part numbers are here put you can get them from the website
