I'm wondering if anyone on here is familiar with 'Worcester cdi compact range'. I had a 32cdi compact fitted 6 months ago. On the fascia are two knobs, one for 'water flow temp to the taps' on the right hand side, and one for 'water flow temp to the radiators' on the left hand side. I wanted to...

Have a 2 PIN 16w old fluorescent bulb fitted in a circular light in the bathroom. Like all fluorescent bulbs (like the long kitchen tubes) it flickers a bit when starting. As this old one has stopped working, I thought I'd replace it with the exact 2 PIN ''LED equivalent''. The box came with...

Fairly old Worcester Combi but works fine.....at the moment. When the CH is first turned on, after about two minutes a noise inside the boiler starts sort of clicking.......a bit like a pipe is expanding/contracting but a bit louder. Each clicking slightly flickers the pressure arrow although...

Is it easy to replace a filling loop on an old 24cdi . About 18 years old and every time we adjust the pressure it often continues to drip as something has worn. Often difficult to tell if key has engaged properly. So we have to re-insert key often to try and stop dripping. Does a heating...

I am a novice at this. Am putting up a polaris security light (movement detector for night-time). All the wiring is in place coming from the house. There are two cables coming out the external wall. One cable, which looks like it comes from the mains, has yellow/green, blue, and brown wires...

Basic room thermostat (turn it clockwise to up temperature) in my hall has been inaccurate since fitted by gas engineer last year. Was going to replace. Opened it up and at the moment the wiring is : BLUE wire to Terminal 2 , RED wire to Term 3 and BLACK wire to Term 1. On the back of the...

Had a conventional Worcester Greenstar 18ri fitted about a year ago. In the hall they fitted a basic clocklike Honeywell thermostat to control room temperature - you simply turn clockwise to increase temperature. (the hot water is controlled by a separate thermostat on the hot water tank) . I...

Have a 'new team' shower . Works from a Worcester Combi. At lukewarm / cold setting after about a minute the attachment and water starts shuddering ,,,, Its a bit like when there is a air-lock in the system when you turn on a tap. This seems to only happen at a this lower temperature. Is it a...

About 9 years old Worcester Bosch combi 24cdi rsf . HW light was flashing fast. Reset red button and works again. However i noticed that the pressure clock is now at about 2 when it has always between 1 and 1.25. Also, regarding Hot Water demand, the Boiler will only fire up when the...

After weeks of trying to identify when this intermitent fault occurs, I've finally narrowed it down. When someone takes say a 10/15 minute shower, all is OK. If a 2nd person then takes a shower within 2 or 3 minutes then everyting is normally fine. HOWEVER, if you wait 15/20 minutes after the...

Having an intermittent problem with hot water to shower . Occasionally, after someone has had their shower perfectly OK, the next person who has a shower is unable to get hot water, as the boiler fails to ignite. Taps do not work either. Only happens very occasionally but I think it more often...

This is a two hook, four bolt lockmaster set up. When closing door to leave house, although the door shuts ok (meaning no-one can get back in without a key), we cannot double lock. The mechanism works when pushing up the handle but the problem is the alignment of the central lock into the side...

Fairly new condensing boiler (with hot water tank). Went on holiday. Left boiler 'on' for C/H and off for hot water. Hallway thermostat at 14c. On my return, house seemed cold. Heating had not clicked in. Checked programer. (hall thermo was clicking ok) . As last resort I slightly moved the...

Have a problem with this nice little refrigerator LEC R450CW . The 'flap' for the little freezer compartment came off. The house was let out for 6 mths & now although I have found the flap, I dont know how to re-fit. The plastic protrusions on each side of the compartment impede the putting...

Electric has been tripping when immersion timer starts operating in morning. One year ago I had a similar problem with a new B&Q timer. Only found out it was timer after wasting my time checking the immersion element was OK. Got my money back and put in a homebase electronic timer. Now its...

I have a Creda H150EW Electric Oven. (the one with a vertical panel at the back holding the controls) Whilst the knobs controlling the rings and grill operate fine, the knob controlling the Oven will not turn off, even at 'o' - hence the whole appliance has to be turned off at the main switch on...

A couple of months ago at my tenants' house I noticed that the front water/heat light on the combi were slowly flashing. The fault diagnosis chart indicated an 'overheat' , so I simply pressed re-set. Since then the girls have noticed intermittent problems with the boiler shutting down and...

Recently acquired a property which has had an additional radiator installed. System needs balancing - I am familiar with the technique to do this. However some of the other radiators' caps have been taken off. There are a few radiators where the valve at each end looks exactly the same ! How...
