I've got the fog wash if the pressure of the water flow is too fast it will cut out

Is the flu clear? any sharp bends in your exhaust outlet chimney (if uve attached one) or have it positioned in a tight space, can cause it to switch off, as it prob has a safety cut out on it the stop a c o build up when the fumes cant escape.

Try a new set of batterys, and maybe temp hang it on the back door and retest it all connected up.But if u can hear the click click click sound your batts are fine as its trying to fire up.

it could be a case of getting the settings right, ie gas ratio to water ratio

tried all settings but still does it , i have a Renault trafic and the middle is boarded out so the sliding  door is separate to back and the heater is on the left against the wall it was fine i did put cheap batteries in tho does that make a difference

When u turn it off, it should fire back up as soon as u open the tap on your reel. as it should detect the water flow. But this is what its like on on fogwash, but yours looks different with that square open flue if thats the 1 uve got. The best thing 2 do would be to talk to corwoods if all these things dont work mate. good luck m
