    It sounds like the filter alright.
    Switch off the mains electric supply to the unit at the fuse board.
    Turn of the water supply to the shower unit, its usually in the attic from the tank or in an adjoining hotpress.
    Remove the front cover from the shower unit.
    The filter is located on the bottom left-hand side behind a black plastic hexagonal cover.
    Unscrew the black plug, but be careful to support the connection from the water pipe to the shower unit so as not to strain and damage it.
    Remove the metal gauze filter and clean under running water with an old tooth brush. When its cleaned put everything back in reverse order.

    Hope that helps:)

    So is power is coming through the pull cord switch....

    This is an unusal problem. You will just have to use a tester and check from the pull cord switch forward to the shower

    If you have no power at the pull cord switch this is where i would start...

    Obv be very careful. Its a lot of electricity passing through there.
