Water on parts 3, 4, 5

Hi, I had a problem with the shower and had to open it, after closing it without the knobs in place it tripped the heater. Now it can't be heated and when I re-opened it I noticed water on parts 3, 4 and 5. What is the solution please?

I can’t understand where the water has come from unless thepressure switch has failed and is spraying water on to these parts.

If it istripping the fuse then it may be a faulty element in the heating tank (thereare two, three in most 10kw showers) you can check them with a multi meter youshould have a reading of around 12>18 ohms.

If you have power to the elements andno heat it's probably the elements, no power to the elements then it'sprobably a micro switch.

If you don’t have a multimeter  wesell them at around £10 each with a link to an on line guide on how to use them for checking and testing the various partsof your shower.

 

Apart from helping to fix your shower,they are really useful for checking you have a power supply to appliances, forchecking fuses, letting you know much power you have left in batteries

(so you know if they are dud ornot)  and lots of other jobs, in short they are well  worth the £10.
