Hi ya wonderful people,
My electric shower has been in situ for around 9 years, certainly preceeds my ownership, and a couple of days ago i noticed that it was not heating water.
The pull cord was still illuminated so i removed the shower casing and i noticed immediately that the neutral connections on the main power areas appear to have been heat damaged.
I could replace these and recify that however, it makes me wonder if anything underlying is wrong with the existing cabling or shower itself that needs work first as the first real problem.
If its bad cabling then i'm surprised its lasted so long, so could the shower be at fault and if so what should i check? Do electric showers commonly do this? Is the cabling wrong and bad practice?
Any help would be very much appreciated!
