I dont really understand your text speak. It would be much better if you could explain the situation clearly in full English.

The diverter valve may have jammed mechanically or the actuator may have failed or the PCB may not be driving it.

Boilers are fairly complicated appliances and need disgnostic tests to determine exactly what has failed.

we can get hot water, but no heating....every time u go to put heating on it ticks over then cuts out.........................
 
try it from cold. even hot water. so there is no heat in the boiler at all.

then try it, if it fires up for maybe 10 secs max then its probably the diverter valve stickin in hw position
