hi,thanks...not combi, ex council house with tank in bedroom...fairly old system but was working ok till bled radiators. heard hissing from them and just hot at bottom on some...did it with heating turned on...
 
Did you wait for the hissing to stop and water to come out?

In what way is it not working?

Are there lights on the boiler on or flashing? What boiler is it?

If it's pressurised you may need to re-fill manually via a filling loop or inbuilt link?

assuming you have 2 header tanks - 1 for hot water and a smaller one for the central heating (these two probably in the loft)

the smaller one is the central heating one. go and have a look inside it and check its got water in it...slightly press the ball valve and check water comes out
 
does the boiler have a reset buttom...it might have tripped
