We had a leak in the toilet which made the water pump triggered on a constant basis, the leak is now fixed and the pump is back to normal, but now the boiler pressure is 0 and none of the rads are heating up although the hot water is coming out nicely and hot. we bled the rads and let the air and all the water out but still not working. Should we have left some of the water in the rads or is there something else wrong.

Any help is very much appreciated as we are going crazy here

i think this boiler had a intergrated fill valve.
look next to the gas pipe on the left hand side under the boiler
 
WOW THE PRESSURE IS NOW BACK TO 1.5
can i now try on the rads.
 
they may need bleeding as you let the pressure go so low.
but you can try the heating.
 
Ok tried the heating and no joy
Bled the rads and no joy only cold water came out and no air
 
whats happening when you turn heating on etc are you getting any of the lights coming on etc ?
 
The yellow led if flashing as it use to before, but the rads are still cold and I have them on the booster settings for the last 20 minutes or so. no noises neither from the rads neither from the boiler yet again plenty toasty water in the taps
 
All switches are on including the main one on the wall. and the timer is set on Boost.

Now when i turned the hot water tap on the yellow led stoped flashing and stayed on and the boiler made noises which is fine.
 
sounds like its not getting a call for heat
could be a fault on the wall stat etc
 
Right so I guess ill have to get someone professional to call outl than.

Thank you very much for your time :D
