I have a triton topaz t100i electric shower , not sure how old it is as was already installed when moved in house 4years ago. Had no problems with shower until now, no matter what settings economy or high and increasing the temp on the dial i only get cold water, any help would be appreciated, thanks steve.

if your not getting a continuity bleep on meter then the tco is open circuit
(faulty)
another way to double check it is when showers power on it should have 230v bothsides.

thanks for response just a bit concerned of doing this with power on, is there anything i can accidentally touch or keep away from as dont want to get a shock, thanks
most wires in the shower will be live when the powers on if you don't feel safe then don't do it.
if you didn't get a continuity reading etc then thats good enough.
isolate the shower and remove the tco, remembering what wires you took off each terminal.
while replacing the tco check the inlet filter, shower head etc are clean as
a restricted flow will cause a tco to activate.

i am fitting the new tco , i have cleaned shower head but where is the inlet filter, can`t see anything in the manual about it, thanks steve
have now fitted tco and tested shower, works fine just could do with info on how/where inlet filter is so i can check and clean it,thanks steve
hi steve.
if you isolate the water feed to the shower and unscrew the brass nut that connects the fitting to the plastic part of the shower.
either pull the copper pipe off or unscrew the shower unit and slide it sideways.
the gauze filter will be inside the plastic tube that the mains water pipe connects to.
glad you sorted the tco.
