Mira Excel (circa 2002) mixer shower no hot water flow

[Gary1998]

Hi all, my 2002 Mira Excel mixer shower is only putting out a dribble of hot water, the cold flow is fine and hot water flow to the bath tap is fine, I fitted a new cartridge to this shower around 3 years ago but the temperature ring is noticeably easier to turn on the faulty shower than on the other Mira Excel shower we have. Do you think it's likely the cartridge would fail within 3 years or does anyone have suggestions of which direction I should go in. Thanks very much in advance for any help you can give.

I had a similar issue with a well known German brand but after nearly 20 years, found that there was no cold output.......opened up the valve and found the inlet filter was completely clogged up. If the cold supply is getting to other parts of the bathroom on the same loop - then this could be the first place to look.
