sink drainedge autohomes

Post by timthetrader »

I have a autohomes 1990. Today I used the sink and instead of water draining away it seems to drain into the van so I want to get under the sink to see if the pipes come loose but how do i get to under the sink? Any ieas please?

Mine is a '87 so may be the same but can't be sure. The main sink is directly over the fridge and a second smaller drainer sink is over the sliding cupboard. The outlets are a 'push' fit and you should be able to access them without removing the fridge by removing or lowering the front panel behind which houses the gas taps (on mine that is!). The main sink on mine links to the drainer sink via a Y connector which is in the cupboard and this sometimes comes apart when items are placed in it or removed. Hope this helps but may be someone with a similar year model can be more specific.

Thanks for the replys guys! Yes it was the push on sink fitment behind the front gas panel. It took longer to type this than it took to fix it RESULT! :ok :ok :P :P
