Hi all,
Is there a kit to convert to an automatic flush from my manual handle?

I have Toto Drake 2 toilets.

We are putting the Toto Washlet bidet on and would like to be able to flush while seated before starting the bidet action.

By auto, you mean that it flushes when you walk away?

Kohler has a conversion that flushes when you wave your hand over the tank.
Kind of hard to do while still sitting, at least for me.

I've not seen anything, but I really haven't looked hard.

Yes That's kinda what I'm after. Just need the sensor on the wall.

After searching 'touchless' (thanks hj) it popped up with:



Just need to be able to have the sensor on the wall.
Seems to be some sensor sensitivity issues with these.

HERE is what I'm looking for.

I guess a guy could use Alexa lol

This is an old post but I just did this so I'll put my info here to help someone in the future. I have the Toto MS604114CEFG one piece toilet and just installed an S550e washlet on it. The toilet had the rubber flapper installed which was getting old so ordered a THU451.10A-A flush valve that fits a 1 piece tank. Then the autoflush motor THU767. In all about 125.00 from eBay. The motor plugs directly into the washlet and a new remote control cap/top comes with the motor which has the flush button added. Now you can flush by pushing the top of the remote or when you walk away it flushes maybe 30 seconds after you lift off the seat.

Hi! Do you have the S550e washlet + or simply the S550e washlet? Also, how does the washlet sit on the toilet? Is it flush with the edge of the toilet bowl or does it protrude beyond the bowl? Thank you!

OK... Yet another thread bump... but I think this is important for those of you buying Toto Washlets with Auto Flush...

Most people think that the only difference between the Toto S500e and the S550e is the auto opening lid, and the night light...

And that is largely accurate and true... HOWEVER, if you add Auto Flush, the same sensor that Toto uses to sense a person's presence to open the lid, is used to detect if someone is executing a standing #1... When it senses the seat is up, and a person stands in front of the toilet, and then moves away from the toilet, the auto flush will engage after about 15 seconds...

If you go with the S500e, the seat sensor is the only sensor that will activate the auto flush...
