galaxy aqua 3000

Hi, I had the shower running and all was fine - I than turned on the cold tap in the sink (its on the same water main), the pressure dropped a little and I could hear the water pressure from the shower decrease. Then the shower just stopped - no water at all. I have checked the fuses in the box and allowed it to cool down but no joy. I have read a lot of your previous postings but am still a little unsure. I am just going out to get a meter, what do you think? Also could you give me an idea of how long it takes parts to come?

Thanks

If opening the tap should not affect the shower significantlyunless you have poor water pressure. (Make sure that all your valves are fullyopen)

If the water has stopped completely,  It may be your solenoid valve,you can check it if you have a multi meter, you should have a reading of atleast k3.5 ohms, across the two terminals any less and you need a new valve.(Check the valve in the failed state.) (When it has stopped working!)

 

If there is power getting to the solenoid and itis not operating then there is a good chance that you have a faulty solenoid.

The videois intended as a guide and does not cover every shower.

 

If you don’t have a multimeter  we sellthem  with a guide on how to use them forchecking and testing the various parts of your shower.

 

Apart from helping to fix your shower, they arereally useful for checking you have a power supply to appliances, for checkingfuses and letting you know much power you have left in batteries

(So you will know if they are good or not) andlots of other jobs, in short they are well worth a few pounds
