SK 1850 Cartridge still leaking

Hi, I just replaced the entire Cartridge and the shower is still dripping. If you had any advice then it would be most welcome as my potterton boiler does not work whilst the shower is dripping :-( Thanks for any advice, Col

 The shower dripping shouldn’t have anything to do with the boiler.

 

If it is not shutting off two things come to mind one is the washer seat inside the valve is damaged or there is dirt or something on it that is not allowing the washer plate to sit down properly on to the seat.

 

Or it could just be that the knob has not been positioned in the correct position and it is not going far enough round to allow the valve to close properly, take the knob of the splines turn it round a little refit it and see if it shuts off then.
