    Vailant VCW242E "operator" problem

    Yep, I realised that so swapped the front plates over between new & old operator, the adjuster screws on the original are sealed with red paint and also have a cover plate lock-wired in place. When I can lay my hands on a pressure gauge that reads in millibar then I'll check burner pressure...

    Vailant VCW242E "operator" problem
