Have tried with new batteries but no success. These thermostats from CENTER are really bad quality. This is the 2nd thermostat from CENTER that has packed in in the last 3 years

A really silly question. My wireless boiler thermostat controller has packed in. How do I turn on / off my radiators without using thermostat? How do I set temperature without the thermostat? Cannot see any button on my boiler to turn it on. It’s a Greenstar i boiler Thanks.

Thanks for all the replies. I did use cotton thread. Nut is a bit tight now but still does not screw to the end of cistern. It becomes loose. Most probably need to get a new one.
