'Fraid it is one of the old acl lifestyle. Where the head can't be changed. Pretty sure it is one of the micro switches that is kaput - are these changeable items - if so where can they be sourced from? But will probably order a new valve next week - the new style at least has the...

Have 230v on white wire to mid-pos valve when call for heating at thermostat. - Which is good right? The 2 oranges to the syncro motor: One has 230V when call for heating but the otherside is always 0V I have to manually move the 3pv to CH once it gets to mid though - syncro motor seems to...

How can I check if the call for central heating is working? When the control panel is set to CH the mid valve doesn't move there. I changed the syncro motor but still no joy. Though if I manually move the mid position valve from HW to mid - it automatically continues through to CH and...

Hi, changed the syncromotor on the 3 way valve - and still no joy! I was concerned that this might be the case. As I noticed when I manually moved the valve from HW thru Both that it seemed to move itself the rest of the way through to CH (when CH was selected on the control panel) - which kind...

I'll get the replacement tomorrow - I may call on your expertise - it doesn't look as simple as changing out a pump (if I have to change the whole valve) - hope I can just change the accutator? Thanks for all your help

Its a 3 port mid position valve. Done some exporation on t'internet. Found now I have manually moved it to Heating I can't move it to mid or Water now! Well at least we are warming up! Its an ACL lifestyle 28mm - from what I have read looks like I won't be able to change just the acctuator...

Moved the motorised valve across manually and lo and behold the boiler now works when Central heating on. Trouble is I don't know if the valve not moving is symptom or cause. Is it not moving 'cos its broken - do they break? Or is some ther part of the wiring perhaps the control panel (where...

The hot water part of the circuit still seems to work - so the boiler does fire up OK when that is required - so fuse on PCB is OK - indeed boiler seems OK. So just remains what prevents the boiler firing up for Central heating - could it be the pump ? If that is kaput would it [revent any of...

Baxi Solo 2PF Got home this evening - house cold - Thermostat and digital control panel on - but looks like the boiler hasn't come on - took off front panel and no lights on. Any ideas as to what could have happened? I notice there is a small spare fuse - so presumably there is a fuse on the...

Hi, this morning when the Central heating came on there was an almighty banging and clonking that started in the pipes. I turned the central heating off and investigated the pipes in the airing cupboard - the pump seemed very hot and there was a sort of wooshing sound/ air coming from that...
