Mira Showers Busted :cry:
The pressure switch has given up and is pissing water all down the inside of the unit and all over the main power cables etc 
Does anyone know where a new pressure switch could be sourced? Its a mira 8.4T shower:
Picture of the offending part (note everything covered in water )

thats very good of you mate, but at the same time i don't expect something for nothing, and Ł10 is better then Ł20, you can have the tenner yourself if you like

if u are going to get a new shower make sure ur supply is up to the job judging by the photo its 6mm = t/e so u should be ok for a slight upgrade kw wise, but the last thing u want is to run a new 10kw shower on 2.5 mm t/e if in doubt get your old man to get it checked out water n leccys dont mix as i found out once at work 
hth

gasants - fuck you who are you to judge me
v6matt, the shower is working again now, bit of a temporary cobble until the new part arrives. And thanks for the advice but should it ever get changed the wiring will be taken into consideration, i was an apprentice electrician a little while back
