Toilet pan connector leak

[rocketmanbkk]

Friends

Had a chap on the phone, he had a new toilet fitted and now he has a small leak from the pan connector that connects to the pan.

His plumber has gone awol!

Anyway, he said the connector was changed but still leaking, it does not leak the waste pipe size.

Any views on how to fix?

He's an older chap so again as always I feel a bit sorry for him but wont get invloved for free!

Nooo more of that!
Thanks

Anyone?

rubber gasket not seated right in fitting or the retaining ring is cracked or not located properly.
could also be pan spiggot has casting imperfection in which case get some silicone around it then re fit or replace.

got to check the collar ring first.
if thats ok then silicone the spiggot then side it back on

You could bodge it with some plumbers gold.

Toolstation > Adhesives & Sealants > Sanitary Sealants > Plumbers Gold 290ml

but this is a bodge - not a proper job.
