Thanks! Interesting point on not winterizing properly, as my husband made to sure to tell me not to pile all the stuff in the bathroom anymore.... but could have been a winterization problem!

Not sure what toilet you have but it sounds like you might need a new valve for it. They're around 20 bucks and readily available, people damage them all the time if they don't winterize properly.  See if you can get a model name and number and look on Amazon or an RV online store for the valve kit. Its easier to take the toilet out to put that in so be sure the kit comes with a seal for the bottom too, called a closet gasket.

It’s a black piece that connects the feed line and the toilet. It seems like it just popped out and now it seems like there is no deal and it slides in and out.

It sounds like you're referring to the fresh water feed line to the toilet. Is it leaking now when you turn on the pressure pump? If it is, you can try using a mirror to see exactly what's leaking back there. Could be the toilet flush valve or the connection to it.

We have a 182G so inside storage can be tight. We tend to pack all our chairs and such in the bathroom when we are moving from place to place. WELP, that came back to bite us. Seems as though we didn’t see that line going into the back of the toilet (but can anyone? It’s such a tight spot to get behind to even look) and we think the pipe has come off or the seal has broken due to the weight of a chair or something.

What do we do?! 

Thanks in advance!
