midnight plumbing

As I was getting ready for bed last night, I heard the toilet cycling through and refilling even when I hadn't used it.  After searching online and texting my friend, I figured out what the problem was.  I watched several YouTube videos and am now an expert.  However, I decided to leave it alone and get my beauty rest.

I watched one more YouTube video where he said I maybe don't need to buy a new canister seal, I could just wash it off and reseat it.  I didn't save that video, but he should get the credit because this morning, I did exactly that.  And the toilet stopped cycling through the refill phase.  Go me!

If it happens again, I can easily buy the piece and replace it.  Thank you to everyone who makes YouTube videos and easily explains what goes where and what needs to be replaced and how.
