    When i turn the hot tap on, the boiler tries to fire, but doesn't succeed, and then the lockout LED comes on. If i press the reset button the same thing happens again.

    Combi boiler misbehaving

    The boiler stays on while the tap is on, also the switch does click when the tap is turned on I had the PCB replaced a few months ago - so it 'should' be functioning normally. Any ideas what might be wrong if it's the PCB?
