    Recently got a new mira sport shower fitted and it has been working fine for a few weeks. Came home from work and it has suddenly stopped working. There is no power going to it and the pull cord light isnt coming on either. Is there anything obvious I'm missing or would I need to get someone In to look at it.

    Have you checked the consumer unit/fusebox?

    The RCD could just have tripped, but I would also wonder has the shower electrics been properly done using correct size fuse or MCB.

    The OP has started the same topic twice.
    No trips and has been told to get the installer back.

    Obviously electricity can be dangerous, but electric showers being heavy cable and high current are not for a novice to work on.
    I checked an electric shower new 45amp pull cord that an unknown person had replaced. Because I had no idea who had installed it, I removed the screws to take a look and discovered the earths hadn’t been reconnected.
