Ok Seco, will do. It was yourself that advised the previous time I had the problem with the shower, which turned out to be the solenoid valve

Thanks for your reply. Just looked at my previous post when shower stopped working before and noticed the exact same thing happened. Therefore, I assume its the solenoid again so I'm going to order another one and give it a go

Redring slimline 650 electric shower Shower stopped working during use. Basically the 4 control buttons to the front of the unit, top 2 there is no red light coming on and nothing else happening when they are pressed, bottom 2 red light is coming on when pressed but nothing else happening...

Shower stopped working while it was on. The top two setting lights do not illuminate when the buttons are pressed. The third down comes on when the button is pushed but nothing happens, no sound, no flow. The light on the bottom 'off' button flashes as normal when pressed. Grateful if anyone...

I just installed a new switch for the electric shower and the red light indicator in permanently on, even when the switch is in the off position. Checked wiring and it seems fine. Maybe it's normal with this particular switch, can't see a make on the casing. Can anyone confirm that it is normal...

Ok thanks lads for all the advice and posts, I'll speak to an electrician and get it upgraded. I was just wondering if I would have to increase the size of the cable, which wouldn't be an easy job in my house..........thanks again

Dont know the size of the cable by looking at it but it appears to be of the order 6.5/7.5mm T&E. I note it was mentioned earlier that 10mm T&E should be used with 45amp fuse. What is the maximum fuse size that should be used on say a 6.5mm T&E cable

Attached are a couple of photos of the fuse carrier for the electric shower circuit.......

RF did you replace the casing, or are you planning to run with an alternative solution? Thanks

Thanks Riveralt, I'll check the shower rating and also the size of the cable. Just wondering why it has been ok for 6/7 years and now all of a sudden the fuse keeps blowing. Surely if the fuse and cable have been unerated I would have had a problem much earlier after installation?

Thanks for that, and I understand your comment. However, the circuit is dedicated to the shower unit and has been operational without problem for 6/7 years, with the same shower unit. The issue has only arisen in the past number of days

I have a redring electric shower which blows the 30amp fuse everytime its used. Just started to do this over the past few days. Seems to last a bit longer if the shower water temperature is kept a bit lower. Have looked inside and wiring, etc. appears ok. See pictures. Grateful for any advice on...

Great job Seco, many thanks for your help. I tested the solenoid on Saturday and was getting zero resistance. Ordered a new solenoid from showerdoc which arrived today, installed this evening and the shower is working perfectly again

Thanks for that Seco. I've attached photos of the casing and internal layout. I have a multi-meter but not sure which part is the solenoid, can you please describe its position based on the photo. Thanks again
