    SOLVED - 24/12 Vaillant Turbomax Blows Fuse When Fan Connected to PCB - Help!

    And I wasn't happy it was working. I still had the hot water issue but risk assessed that I would have that resolved before the daylight failed. Since everything was powered correctly and no error codes were being thrown, I surmised that the issue must lay within the diverter alone. Thankfully...

    SOLVED - 24/12 Vaillant Turbomax Blows Fuse When Fan Connected to PCB - Help!

    The fan was picked up the night before but I didn't dare/want to fit it in the dark with just a headtorch. The boiler is in the garden in its own hut. Should turn your sarc down, it's Christmas. Merry Christmas, i'm off to visit family and enjoy a good meal.

    SOLVED - 24/12 Vaillant Turbomax Blows Fuse When Fan Connected to PCB - Help!

    Hi Bunnyman, not sure I've been rude to anyone, certainly not on here. Apologies if I came across that way but as you can imagine, no heating and hot water at Christmas was proving a bit of a nightmare. To be honest, I felt some people were rude to me and each other in this thread but there you...

    I should check that Santa's sack isn't stuck down the flue. Maybe he took a wrong turn. Festive gremlins.

    SOLVED - 24/12 Vaillant Turbomax Blows Fuse When Fan Connected to PCB - Help!

    Ok so update for anyone interested... The windings on the fan motor looked burnt in one area, well, darkened if not burnt. This, and the fact it was blowing the T2A fuse was screaming change me. Yesterday, I took out the old PCB as per the GSE's advice. He wanted me to buy a £250 board from...

    SOLVED - 24/12 Vaillant Turbomax Blows Fuse When Fan Connected to PCB - Help!

    Yes, but the second G.S.E. said to change the PCB, which was wrong. I can't keep making costly shots in the dark. I just wanted a discussion about potentially already experienced issues with fans that could lead to a blown fuse. Yes, the pump is running fine ostensibly. It made some gurgling...

    SOLVED - 24/12 Vaillant Turbomax Blows Fuse When Fan Connected to PCB - Help!

    To give a little background... This boiler has been in operation since 2002-3 (TurboMAX VUW GB 242/2-5 R1) in a relatively hard water area. Since I've been here (six months) the heating has been ok and the hot water started with hot/warm and progressed to warm/cold then only cold. There were...

    SOLVED - 24/12 Vaillant Turbomax Blows Fuse When Fan Connected to PCB - Help!

    Hi all, My Vaillant Turbomax 824e keeps blowing the 2A fuse when fan connected. It's fine doing nothing if the fan is unplugged and the boiler switched on. Fan terminals at board connector read ~50K Ohms vs case ground. Is there a fan relay to check? The fan seems to spin ok (without...

    Instructions for Vaillant Turbomax VUW GB 824E (plus)

    Hello all, new member here trying to find some instructions for the boiler in the title. I have fixed our lack of hot water by following the advice given regarding a couple of valve adjustments (90 degrees to left until pressure = 1.5 bar then reset) but it would be great to have the manuals...
