E-lectrican   10 #2 Posted October 2, 2010 Is there no indication of power to it....it is possible there is an RCD unit fitted behind the bath panel.......(seen this a few times)....also...check supply to isolater switch, which shoul be positioned outside the bathroom....  I have seen in some instances where installers have used the old immersion heater supply switch.... make sure you havent accidently turned it off.

49er_Jerry   10 #3 Posted October 2, 2010 Second E-lectrician has suggested.  Also another simple check you can the fuse. I have been to a similar problem where the fused connection unit for the bath was hidden in the back of a kitchen cupboard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

It would need dismantling and checking. Maybe a clean would do the job. Advise new brushes too.    http://www.m201.com/start/dem2.jpg Edited October 16, 2010 by skinz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
