What happens here
To access the internal components for repair, use a Milwaukee impact driver fitted with a 1/2 inch socket to unscrew the bolts that hold the waterer's top cover. Carefully lift and remove the cover, exposing the internal float and valve assembly. Upon initial inspection, it's noted that the float appears to be engaged, but water continues to flow, indicating an issue with the valve's sealing capability.
Goal: Gain access to the waterer's internal components and make an initial diagnosis of the valve failure.
