If there is no system pressure then dont expect the boiler to work!

Would you drive your car with the tyres flat?

You need to find your filling loop !

See FAQ if you dont know what it looks like!

yeah i sorta guessed the pressure would be the probas the manual says it needs to be about 1, but does that explain why there is no led display at all

Pressure is one problem, I would guess the filling loop is inside the casing somewhere.

When you say LED, do you mean the complete display is dead, or just that the white/bluish light is not coming on?

If the latter this only comes on when the boiler is firing/active.

If the display is completely dead, then either a fuse has blown, or more commonly the pcb has had it.

It could have leaked inside causing the pressure to fall and to destroy the electronics.

The filling loop is in the lower section of the boiler to the right hand side.
If you have 240v to the PCB and no display, then the PCB will need replacing.
