This question is regarding Hydra Universal Electric Shower Solenoid Coil (no valve included) - 27600

Solenoid replacement in Triton T100XR

Hi there,



I ordered one of the solenoids to replace one in my Triton T100XR (lights go on, but no hot or cold water comes out - used to be fine). Unfortunately it seems to be quite a different design inside to the one in your video: the base of the solenoid seems to be blocked by a bit of plastic, and I can't seem to remove it without taking out the whole valve assembly and inlet pipe assembly.



Is this the case, or am I missing something simple?



Many thanks, Jake

The coil its self is the same, you are just going to have toremove the complete flow / stabiliser valve to get the space to get the old oneout and the new one in.

 

The video is intended as a rough guide and obviously can’tcover every shower it is not uncommon to have to remove parts of the showerbody worl ot various other parts to get to the part that requires replacing.

As a rough guide this may help

 The replacement isfairly straight forward.

Turn of the water and power you then have to dismantlemost of the inside of the shower to get enough space to slip the old part outand the new part in.

 

This sounds more difficult than itactually is, however you do have to be methodical noting where screws/nuts etc.come from and what goes where and it is always a good idea to take photos asyou go because you can refer to them when you are rebuilding.
