Customer Question

Hi, my hot water is only dribbling through when I select warm, hot etc. Has the solenoid gone?

Hi there and welcome to JA,

That is correct, if the water is only dribbling through, then the valve is either stuffed, or the mesh filter in the hose to the valve is blocked. Unscrew the hose from the tap and confirm. If no filter is there, check the valve end of the hose, the valve also has a filter there as well ok,

Worst case, you need a new valve.

Here: This is it*
