Anybody familiar with this problem, please help.
The hot water side & the green light will fire up sometimes on opening the tap but not always.
When it doesn't fire up I close the tap & flick the elec power switch on & off a couple of times until the green light flicks on as I do it.
Then open hot tap and it will work & may continue to work for a few hours until it fails to fire up again.
It will sometimes knock off while running, eg half way through a shower, not funny when it suddenly goes cold.
The fault chart suggests it's the User control pcb?
I had a CH man take a look & he thought flow switch?
Both items approx £120 each & sods law says do one & it'll be the other.
The boiler is near 20 years old so is it worth spending on or do we need to bite the bullet?
