Triton Rapide shower. Low water pressure light on ??!!

[Brian Lacey]

A 'just moved house and it doesn't work properly' question. East Northants area.

Shower unit is a Triton Rapide 4 plus. It worked fine for a few days but now runs cold with low pressure light lit.
I have run it with max temp and flow slows (shower head removed) as it should and then increases as the temp control is turned down. Shower head is clean.
When cold flow button is pressed there is a good strong flow, but cold, I don't do cold showers !!!
When next heat button, Economy, is pressed then flow is just the same, good and strong but the low pressure light comes on and cold water again. Still cold even when temperature dial is turned up, flow slows of course.
Exactly the same for the High setting.

Tried different times of day but no change.
So, what might be the problem and what can I do about it ?
Many Thanks
Brian.

Sounds like the cut out has been activated . I'm unfamiliar with that model but with the t100es t80z and other showers they have a cut out . If activated it will need replacement . Unsure why the low pressure light is activated . Maybe filter is blocked ?

First check the filter is clean.
Then check the flow switch pin is activating the micro switch on the base of the pcb (common fault)

The 7073333 pcb suffers with a few problems 1 being the micro switch solder connections
