Triton Bewitch Water pressure light

Had the machine for a few years with no issues. Never had issues with the Pressure light switch off, unless someone was flushing a toilet.

About 1 month ago, it started to occasionally to not start by defaulting to the Water Pressure light. But would then work later without any issue.

This issue seemed to clear itself, and for the last month or so no issues at all.

Yesterday, it worked fine for my wife, but when I tried about 1 hour later, defaulted immediately to the Pressure light. Would not work for around 15 minutes. Then started and worked fine for a full shower. Today, similar thing, but this time when I tried to shower the pressure light came on straight away and no amount of switching on and off or cranking up the pressure or just leaving it, has rectified the issue. The shower is dead.



Opened the box. There is no obvious signs of distress.



Any ideas?

Sounds like you have two faults, first you have low pressure flushing the toilet shouldn’t cause a problem.

 

However if the water supply is now cutting off completely then I think you now have a faulty solenoid valve....See below.....


It may be your solenoid valve, you can check it if you have a multi meter, you should have a reading of at least k3.5 ohms, across the two terminals any less and you need a new valve. (
Check the valve in the failed state.) (When it has stopped working!)

If there is power getting to the solenoid and it is not operating then there is a good chance that you have a faulty solenoid.

The video is intended as a guide and does not cover every shower.

If you don’t have a multimeter  we sell them  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 and letting you know much power you have left in batteries

(So you will know if they are good or not) and lots of other jobs, in short they are well worth a few pounds
