Power Selector moving freely

My shower is Triton Ivory II. Power selector is moving freely (without any clicking sound) and the shower does not turn on. Power light turns on and off when cord switch is used. Is it reparable and if so which part do I need? Many thanks.

Good morning,

Thank you for your email.

It may well be that your solenoid has failed into the closed position and is, as such, not allowing the water to enter the shower. This part needs to be energised constantly throughout the showering experience to allow the water to flow into the unit and then out of the shower head. However, to be sure beyond reasonable doubt that it is the solenoid at fault then this part needs to be tested with a digital multimeter. When tested with a multimeter,  the solenoid should display a resistance reading across its two terminals of at least 3.5k ohms. If the reading obtained is any less than this then the solenoid will need to be replaced.

Nb. Remember to test the solenoid in its failed state; i.e. when the shower is not working.

Should you require a new solenoid, please follow the link below to order this part from our website...
