Triton opal 2 manual

Take hold of the front panel and pull it upwards and towards you from the bottom, you'll feel it click out of place, then pull the panel forwards to remove it. Note that it is still attached by a connecting cable, so don't pull it forwards too far!

Thanks again for the help guys. Michael February Thanks Ric February Same issue, on testing PCB has electrical flash across the board like it is shorting out. When the shower is turned on, on heat setting 2, shower goes from heat setting 2 to cold instantly and the low pressure light comes on.

Micro switch does look bent though. Thanks Triton. James, Devon January Its guaranteed for 2 years from purchase dig out them receipts you need it or they wont fix it dodgyscouse December The same happened to mine. It's not the fact that the pressure has reduced, one of the components has gone. We got a plumber and an electrician to look at it, we had to get a new one! Jimbo October Many Thanks for all your help. I actually found thet a short length of tooth brush handle fits exactly into the gap between the switch and the coil?

B and Q were cheapest. I had exactly the same - low pressure light on all the time, and the shower sometimes heating the water. I tried the switch issue as suggested by Andy CZ, could physically see the pressure switch move up and press againist the microswitch.

However have tested the switch with a multimeter this was working OK, as Andy suggested just seems to be wired using one the poles. The other pole is grounded and not used. To rule this out I even shorted the switch out and still low pressure light!

Anyway I replaced the power board and all now working. Can only suggest there is some other issue with the power board. The heater light goes off as expected but the water keeps running Our temp fix at the minute is after STOP pressed , wind round to the highest heat setting reducing the water pressure then repeatedly press stop , pauses in between till it eventually stops Has anyone else experienced this with the Triton Opal II?

Thanks in advance.. Shaun shaunweir88 hotmail. My problem with my opal chrome shower,6 months old low pressure showing no hot water. I rang triton complained and they are sending me an engineer to fix the problem free of charge. So in my opinion its worth having a moan to Triton after all it shuddnt have broken down in the first place. If water comes out of the bottom outlet next to the hose attachment the pressure releif valve has gone.

Thsi happened to me I was about to replace the shower then contaced Triton. Looks like the micro switch low pressure has now gone so I off to solder that as mentined above. Deano January Exactly the same problem with mine - it ran fine for a while then packed up thankfully i'd just rinsed the conditioner out of my hair! It worked fine the following morning, then stopped after 10 minutes. Very helpful advice here - will no doubt use this website again!

Kelly October Hmmm same problem here Shower turned on nothing happening but low pressure light comes on. I opened the shower up and found the plunger thing but mine looks down permanently, I tried holding the micro switch in and the low pressure no longer comes on but nothing happens.

When turning it on should something activate on the inlet pipe to open it to allow the plunger to move? The shower is only about 2 months old and replaced a 6 year old one that died of similar causes except it chucked water out of the bottom.

Can i manually run water through it somehow, is there an air lock in it? Spod October Andy Cz was right, the switch on the PCB bends up a bit after repeated pressure.

It's a design fault in a PCB that Triton use in a few showers. I switched off the mains, removed the cover, bent it down a bit technical I know until it looked horizontal and then put a a small bit of a match in to keep it in place. Lastly, I replaced the cover. There is always the risk that you will push it too low and then the shower won't cut out when it should - dead shower, scalded person in shower etc.

So please bear in mind, I am not advising you what to do, I am just saying what I did. Having said that, we have no header tank and it's a straight mains feed so I'll report back once her indoors has tried it out and I have carried out a controlled scientific experiment - varying the water pressure by flushing the toilet a few times! Simon Worswick September This goes up when there is water pressure going through the unit.

The plunger pushes against a mini micro switch on the bottom of the circuit board I think it was labeled SW1. This is the problem. It is a design fault. There is no way this switch can handle multiple pushes up and down without becoming loose eventually. Its easy to fix.

You could get away with just wedging a peice of wood behind the switch to stop it from bending back. Providing the soldered contacts are still connected. Just dont use a peice of chopped pencil like I did as Iv'e now blown somthing. Stupid me forgot about the graphite in it and shorted somthing out. So now it wont turn off and buzzes. The low pressure light went off though when I replaced the pencil with a peice of wood.

I'm not buying any parts for it though as they are too expensive, Might aswell buy the same shower again and have plenty of spares for next time. Alex April I have a Triton Opal Shower and my shower kept going cold then hot with the low pressure light on.

Then sometimes cycling but more often stayed cold with low pressure light on. I fixed it last night and this is what I did:- Open the unit and switch shower on being careful you will see that around the centre of the unit there is a plunger thing going to use my own technical words on top of the white inlet, outlet thingy in the middle of the box. Draw a diagram of where each and every wire goes on the circuit board only there are similar wires so draw where they come from!!

Switch the mains power off to the shower. Disconnect all the wires on the circuit board and take it out by undoing the 2 screws holding the board down one of the screws is hidden behind the "L" shape plate but is revealed once you unscrew the wires. To fix it solder the 4 connections on the back of the mini micro switch to make it solid again. You can test it with a continuity tester battery and bulb if you want to check the switch legs connect to the lines of the circuit board I could only test one side of switch, other side seem to have both legs wired together permanently according to my continuity test.

I also put a small piece off wood behind the switch to support it for the future. Get your act together Triton, or did you want it to only last a short while??!! Hope this helps someone. Andy Cz. April When I inspected the coil contacts on the the old circuit board, they were badly eroded. I'm assuming that that was the problem. I don't know why triton don't run a service like this.

You'd think they'd have all the answers and would only be too pleased to help their customers. Anyway,wishing you luck! Regards, Mike Mike Coady April I ordered it today. I did all the blockage type checks which might restrict the flow and although I don't have a meter, the mains pressure into the house doesn't seem to have changed.

My situation maybe different from yours but let me explain a little more. The high temp setting suddenly stopped working and the low pressure light came on. Unfortunately, the high temp setting doesn't work from the start and I started to look on the internet for a solution. I found a case on a website which seemed to be the same problem as mine and their solution was to change the Power PCB and this worked for them.

I will write to you again and let you know if it has been successful for me. I can answer this question Your Answer:. Add Answer. Your Answer: An answer is required.
