Symptoms:-
Pilot lights ok when gas valve depressed, fan goes to high speed, pilot lights.
On CH demand, pump runs, primary flow switch operates, but fan does not go to high speed- except that sometimes it does. It will then cycle as expected for an hour or 2 , then fail to start and sit there with the pump running.
The primary flow microswitch measures OK on a meter, I even ran it for a while with a jumper across its terminals, and the heating still stopped
Prior to the above:-
I replaced the fan, as it was noisy and wasn't always generating enough suck to operate the APS
I then couldn't relight the pilot as the fan didn't go to high speed when the gas valve was depressed, so I replaced the IGN PCB.
I have checked as many other things as I can think of, any comments appreciated
