electric shower getting too hot

[Gary111]

Hi, Ive got an electric shower seems to be suddenly too hot, is it possible that this is caused by having the wrong head on it ?
it does say only use with original head but I think its been changed, can it make that much difference ?
thanks
ps its a gainsborough 9.5 se

Have you removed the head to see if the issue reoccurs?

have done that its still overheating dangerously, made a clicking noise first, steam came out , surely there should be some overheat protection ?
thanks

Should be some overheat protection, has anything else been altered as well as the head?

There will be a thermostat somewhere in the shower also an anti scald device.

There should be a thermal cutout if it overheats , sounds like something has gone very wrong

What shower is it?

New shower time ,not worth trying to repair.
