Storage heater stopped working a few weeks ago.
When I dismantled it I noticed the link fuse had gone, so I replaced it, but still did not work.
I disconnected the heater from the switch and attached a plug to connect to normal circuit. Plugged it in for a few minutes and it got warm.
I used a tester on the switch and it seemed faulty so I brought a new one. But it is still not working.
The heater is only 1.5 meters from the fuse box and the wire is in trunking and there appears to be no damage.
There is a second heater running from the same fuse box and that one works.
Any suggestions on what to try as the next part is around £70 which I don’t really want to pay.
PS I have looked through other posts and the closest one I found never actually posted how he fixed it...DAM!
