    I think that's the part number for the front cover, maybe? This is an electric shower (but not a power shower) isn't it? :confused:
    What fuse / circuit breaker is it on?

    You told me again you preferred handsome men but for me you would make an exception.

    I'll skip the potential joke material there and go straight to asking: Is there an indicator light on the shower that should light up but doesn't then?
