Pull switch not working?

Hi. When I pull my pull switch it lights up, but when I turn my shower on, the pull switch goes out. Once I turn the shower to off, the pull switch lights up again?

Your shower will be drawing to much power which is causing the light to turn off.

This could be a problem of a cable being snagged somwhere which cuts it out or wrong connection so could be an easy fix

Loose connection or faulty switch terminals not connecting properly

Looks like the light and the shower are wired on the same wire which shouldn't be like this. Get electrician to test it
