Triton T80i TCO?

Hi. i replaced the heater can on my Triton T80i six months ago and it worked fine until a couple weeks ago. It was pumping out cold water which didnt heat up at all. The flow adjusted when turning the dials though. I've replaced the TCO switch I bought from you but the water only comes out luke warm now, when the setting are on full. Any suggestion about what to do next? From other posts it seems like it could be a heating element, but I replaced the heater recently....

Yes I think you are correct it is the heating element.

 

However I think you may have had a previous problem

First a switch sticking in the on position keeping one of the elements energised all the time, this element fails and you fit the first heating can.

 

The switch is still sticking on only now the TCO keeps turning off the power to the elements, the TCO is designed for occasional use and because it is being used all the time it fails, cold water!

 

You replace the TCO, the switch is still sticking in the on position keeping one of the elements energised, this element fails and you now have a second faulty heating can.

 

You may have heard the shower still heating a little after you switched it off.


Not much help but it may explain what has happened
