Flow gets hot quicker and is hotter than return. No error messages
Even with the flow and return reversed the red pipe will still get hot first, you need to physically trace which pipe goes whereFlow gets hot quicker and is hotter than return. No error messages

How do you figure that out Ian?, if the right hand connection on the boiler is the Flow which we assume it must be since its marked F, dont know if the red marking is Baxi's?, and if it gets hot first then its hard to see how its pumping the wrong way IMO. If the pump is pulling the water from a wrongly connected pipe (to the reurn, R) then the pumps forced circulation should circulate it through the rads etc, back through the flow, through the heat exchanger where it will (still) be heated and out the return which should be the hottest pipe?Even with the flow and return reversed the red pipe will still get hot first, you need to physically trace which pipe goes where
because you are thinking that the pump direction has changed it hasnt, it just means the pump is now on the return rather than the flow, so instead of the pump (circulator) pulling water from the flow and circulating through the system, it is now pumping into the return which then pushes the water out through the flow, nornmally this isnt noticed but on an open vent system it causes problemsHow do you figure that out Ian?, if the right hand connection on the boiler is the Flow which we assume it must be since its marked F, dont know if the red marking is Baxi's?, and if it gets hot first then its hard to see how its pumping the wrong way IMO.

Tracing the pipes will confirm or not.
Also if the target flowtemp is set to say 60C and the actual flowtemperature displays 60C then flow correct, if the actual displayed flotemp is say 70C then wrongly connected, just another check.
That's because I actually wrote it yesterday or the day before and forgot to press post, oh well, better late than neverGreat advice. Along the same lines as others.
