I think you have a micro switch that is stuck in the on position this is keeping one of the elements energised even after you switch the shower off.

Until you trace which switch this is, switch the shower on and off using the pull cord or isolation switch, this should only be regarded as a temporary fix.

Continued use can cause the Thermal Cut Out inside the shower to fail and it may also cause the isolation switch to fail.

 The other possibility is the pressure switch or the pressure switch levers are sticking.
