    Electric shower tripped electric now won't heat (much)

    Thank very much for the help both of you, much appreciated. I think on reflection i'm just going to get a new shower... £65 with a 2 year warranty rather than all of the effort diagnosing the problem, new parts which could be £30 or could be £65 (plus buying a mulitmeter)... and then...
