Redring Expressions 9.5Kw Loud Electrical Buzz and Failure

I have a Redring Expressions 9.5Kw shower, The unit is about 18 months old. It began with making a loud electrical buzzing noise and then the shower lost most of its heat. I took the cover off and found one of the terminals on the Phased Shut-down Relay was badly burnt (see attached pic). Could this have caused the noise and shower failure?

Thanks

It could and this should be changed. I would also check the elements in the heating can to see if they are working correctly.

You can check them with a multi meter you should have a reading of around 12>18 ohms.

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

If you don’t have a multimeter  we sell them at £10 each with a guide on how to use them for checking and testing the various parts of your shower.


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

(so you know if they are dud or not)  and lots of other jobs, in short they are well  worth the £10.
