    8.5kw Mira Sport Shower "Low Pressure" light

    Thanks very much Seco :D The supply to the house was re-routed due to an extension. The bathroom is now fed from from the other end of the bathroom pipework and the other end capped off. So the supply to the shower has been re-routed effectively.

    Replace an electric shower please help!!!

    It looks to me as though the cables supplying the shower are not large enough. For a 9.5kw shower you would probably need a minimum of 10mm cable. The ones in the last picture look closer to 2.5mm than 10mm. I don't think any shower that heated the water itself would work on that circuit...

    8.5kw Mira Sport Shower "Low Pressure" light

    Hi, My Mira MK2 Sport Shower has stopped working. It shows the low pressure light and just dribbles a little bit of water out even when the shower head and hose to it has been taken off. I have checked that the filter is ok and tried blowing out any dirt out of the top of the shower (getting...

    washing machine wont spin with a load

    No worries, I'm glad it is working again. A dirty com is more of a symptom of a brush contact issue though (I think). Possible one of the brushes got stuck and was made free after you had a tinker with it. Not sure really. At least it is going now. Good work.

    Hotpoint WMT03 failing to fill up properly.

    Thanks Cakeman. I was suspicious about the description and quizzed it a bit on the phone. I should have know better. Just getting on with it is the best way I think :)

    washing machine wont spin with a load

    I had a similar problem myself today with the mother-in-law's machine. That wouldn't spin with a load either and would just "try". I could get it to turn without. It turned out to be the brushes on that. The symptoms you describe sound like the brushes again to me (although you said they were...

    Hotpoint WMT03 failing to fill up properly.

    I'm still alive cakeman :) I made a tester up with a flex before I went over. When I gave it a run though it became obvious it was filling and emptying ok. So it looks like I had been given a bad description of the problem. The problem seemed to be the drum not spinning. It would turn...

    Yes, that wouldn't be a pleasant experience :) Thanks Cakeman. I shall be careful.

    Hotpoint WMT03 failing to fill up properly.

    Thanks a lot Cakeman. Appreciated. Sounds like a good plan. I have some spade connectors I think. I will check continuity first though. I will let you know how I get on. Cheers, Mark

    Hotpoint WMT03 failing to fill up properly.

    Thanks Cakeman. It is a good possibility as I know that the hotwater there gets rediculously hot. Hot enough to cause problems with valves I would think. Is there an easy way of testing the theory apart from replacing the valve? Thanks again, Mark

    Hotpoint WMT03 failing to fill up properly.

    Thanks Rocks. So it might not be indicitive of a filling issue then. However she did say that normally it takes some time to fill and that it stopped filling much earlier than expected (from her experience sound wise). Looks like I will have to play it by ear when I get up there unless...

    Hotpoint WMT03 failing to fill up properly.

    I am looking into this for my mother in law (who rang me up this evening). I haven't managed to look at the machine myself yet (she is a bit of a drive away) but I was wondering if anybody had any ideas before I travel up there. Apparently it seems to start to fill and then switch itself off...
