Power shower help please?

[benunited]

Hi folks

Amateur here. Generally okay with basic electrics but a bit stumped with this one.

Today I tried to install a power shower. It's an aqualisa shower with the pump built in.

I was replacing a previous shower, which turned on/off via a pull chord, and replicated the wiring.

Strange thing is no matter whether the 'box' the chord goes to says 'on' or 'off' the light on the box stays on. Don't think it did that before!

Also, the shower isn't very powerful - and I'm trying to work out if the pump is working or not.

When the box says 'on' the pump is semi-powerful - and when I turn the water off it makes a noise, a pumping noise.

When the box says 'off' the pump us also semi-powerful - and when I turn the water off there's no noise, nothing happening.

Either way,when the water is turned on there isn't any noise - now I know the pump is supposed to be quiet, but silent?

Any advice very much appreciated! Thanks

Didn't see this one as being beyond me to be honest. Pipes go in where the power shower pipes were before, connect up the electrics as they were before.

But fear not, I'm taking the kind advice and will be calling someone in. Thanks folks!

and yes...do please call someone in.....
