I thought by removing the fuse and inserting the prongs into the fuse holder this makes it inline?

I connected up my towbar electrics yesterday via a bypass relay. My battery was dead after I finished fitting it, but I wasn't sure if that was because I had my lights on and off testing them at the plug to figure out which wire did what. When I put my multimeter across the inline fuse on the...

Get a couple more quotes and compare?

I dont know if its a quarter turn operation or just a spinning tap head, but either the tap washer(s) or the quarter turn cartridge needs replacing on both or either one of the hot and cold. You can either get washers for it, tap reviver kits or new cartridge.

A picture may help if you can get one. Have you opened the 2 quarter turn isolation valves either side (black twisty lever things) are they inline with the pipe in the open position? Is the water flow/pressure good elsewhere in the house? Is your filling loop ok? If you disconnect the...

Having a coil of plastic pipe won't make a difference to not having it coiled. Are there any service valves, stop taps, gate valves etc on the feed? Where any of the joints made with ptfe and it has covered the opening of any valves or pipe? Is there a filter on the inlet of the dishwasher?

Yes I'm 99% sure it is. Fit these bogs all the time in work and the optima looks bang on

Try websites like checkatrade etc.. other than that the yellow pages, recommendations? Might be one hiding under your bed.

Use top hat washers.

No, but beware buying off ebay, I bought a second hand PCB for my old Biasi Riva Compact boiler off ebay, came with a blown fuse and had the exact same problem as the old one had (burnt resistor). You can get service kits for the diverter valves for around £20-£30 which replace all the...

Bag of quick setting mortar :eek::LOL::LOL:

Getting it fixed seems like the right thing to do, or tell the new owner about it, they may have it in mind to replace boiler anyway? I reckon you are looking at around £100-£150 labour.

What make and model is the shower?
