Hello,
Happy new year to you.
Ravenheat CSI 85T Combi.
Before Xmas I had sme issues with my hot water, specifically the shower. The shower would start hot then after a minute would go cold then 20secs later hot again and repeat. I have been away Over Xmas so thought I'd sort it out in the new year. The problem is still there but only happens when the system is cold and the heating is off.
Then today the heating wouldn't come on as it usually would. With the heating set to on I could hear the pump turning but the boiler wouldn't ignite. I had a quick wiggle of some wires and plugs and when I wiggled the CH Sensor plug (see below) the boiler ignited. I assume this is the thermostat? So the boiler worked OK after this but then when it was due to come on later today the same thing happened and a quick wiggle made it work.

Am I right in thinking i need to replace the CH Sensor? Would this also be related to the hot water problem or should I replace the DHW Sensor while I'm at it? I replaced the diverter value about a year ago and it's pushing the little pin out as it should so that's working.
I have a little 3month old baby in the house so any advice you can give is greatly appreciated.
Thank you
