mira sport max boiling after use

i have a problem with a mira sport max 10 .8kw. i change thermal switch on top of heater tank as it was running constant cold water this cured problem but when i switch shower off it boils up then hot water spurts out shower head for a few seconds then it goes on standby,the landlord was at it before me and i think he may have mixed up a wire any ideas i was wondering if one of the thin grey wires should be on the neutral connection of the heater tank

Yes it is possible that the wires have been mixed up or that there is a relay on the PCB that is stuck in the on position and in either case it is keeping one of the elements energised and therefore constantly heating.

 

Until you resolve the problem switch the shower on and off using the pull cord switch, this should however be regarded as a very temporary solution. (continued use will burn out other components)
