    Hi

    I have an electric shower (Triton) which kept cutting out intermittently and has now stopped working altogether.

    I have taken the front off of the shower and have identified that the thermal cut out has burnt out.

    How do I go about fixing this? Can I replace the part? Do I need a new shower? Do I need an electrician??

    Any advice would be gratefully received. Thanks :)

    If you do, do it, switch the shower off at the fuse board and not just the pull cord/switch:)

    Ok thanks. I think I'm just going to buy a new shower and get my dad to fit it!
