If pressing the flush button or handle produces zero flushing action, the issue is typically caused by a broken, detached, or snapped flush chain connecting the handle arm to the rubber flapper valve. Other causes include a disconnected trip lever mechanism inside the tank or a stuck push-button actuator rod. Callout type="warning" title="Hygiene Warning": Wear rubber gloves when reaching into tank water. Verification: Remove the tank lid and push the metal trip lever manually; if the flapper opens and flushes the toilet, reconnect or adjust the flush chain.
