[QUOTE="gavtro, post: 558543, member: 38187"] We did wonder about that but thought it would have been too much of a coincidence for two parts to fail at once, unless, of course, the flow valve then caused the heating tank unit to fall (or maybe the other way around)? So, replace the heater tank? Why would it heat up, though, after adjusting the dials if an element has failed? Could the new flow valve be faulty? (maybe, despite it saying it was the 9.0kw version, perhaps it wasn't?) When you order the replacement flow valve, there's a disclaimer: [B]NOTE FOR PRE 2005 Sport Models Due to a modification by Mira, if a flow valve or switching assembly is required, the following 3 items would need to be replaced:[/B] [LIST] [*][URL='https://www.showerspares.com/search/mira_flow_valve_assembly_1563.507/']Mira flow valve assembly (1563.507)[/URL] [*][URL='https://www.showerspares.com/search/mira_switching_assembly_1563.509/']Mira switching assembly (1563.509)[/URL] [*][URL='https://www.showerspares.com/search/mira_low_flow_neon_assembly_1563.514/']Mira low flow neon assembly (1563.514)[/URL] [/LIST] But, as mentioned, we believe our model to be a 2006, maybe later, so the above shouldn't affect us?
