I'll check as you suggested first thing in the morning. We do have the manuals, but those kind of things are best left to the installer. He'll do it when he gets back from Hampshire...we don't want to invalidate the warranty in any way. Thanks to everyone for their advice...it's got me to...

Yes, that was one of the first things I did...put brand new Duracell batteries in.

OK, I've just checked in the loft. The receiver is about 200mm from the boiler and there were no lights showing. I went to the control unit in the lounge and the flame symbol was lit, even though the room temp was 2 deg higher than the set temp. I turned it up to 25deg and went back to the...

Thanks, We have notified the installer, but he's working 300 miles away at present and he would come and have a look when he returns (he'd have no choice, his girlfriend and my wife are friends). We're only checking to see if we have done anything wrong, or if it's a simple thing to...

1. We only know of the control unit, so we assume that the receiver is in the loft near the boiler. 2. The distance between the control unit and the boiler is about 10m 3. 2 floors and 1 wall. 4. No 5. We've never seen the receiver...if it's in the loft, we'd need to get a ladder out of the...

We have recently had a complete new central heating system (boiler, pipes, radiators...the lot) fitted and we are having trouble with the boiler not coming on at the time the thermostat is set for. The boiler is a Vaillant ecoTEC and the thermostat is a Honeywell CM727 Wireless. I have the...

The system tripped out again tonight - a couple of hours earlier than last night, so I switched off the four minor switches covered by the one that tripped, then switched that main one on, followed by the other four, one at a time ...and when I switched the heating system trip switch back on, it...

Thanks for the replies everybody. We have a brand new Volex VR80 with 2 main switches + 2 secondary switches, each covering 4 other switches + a seperate shower switch. Everything has been fine since last night and as it didn't trip out immediately when I reset it then, I'm going to go with...

I was working at the computer tonight when it suddenly went off, as did all upstairs sockets and downstairs lights. One of the main switches in the fusebox (is it still called that?) had tripped. I pushed it back up without any problem and so far it's been OK after an hour. We had our whole...
