Yes - improve your grammar, use full stops, commas and paragraphs, and we might
find it easier to reply.

What is a ho****er ?

Ignore them, it's another one from the diybanter crowd. Killfiles work
well here.

This is the actuator of the diverter valve.

Check for dripping hot taps, on a marginal fault this can make the
difference, for a short while.

You will need to buy the whole diverter valve about £80 but you only need
to replace the actuator at the front of the unit.
