The last time it happened the bathroom below the one I was in flooded.
When the maintenance guy came to the rescue, all he did was pop the cap off the flow control screw (indicated by the red arrow in the picture below) and use a screwdriver to turn it clockwise.
The urinal languished for weeks with an “OUT OF ORDER” sign on it. But one day I really had to pee and the other bathroom was closed for cleaning, so I used the out-of-order urinal knowing exactly why it was out of order. After peeing, I turned the screw counter-clockwise to allow a brief flow of water like a five-second flush, and then I turned it back to its clockwise state to stop the water.
Sometimes the hero is the guy with a screwdriver who knows what to screw.
