Vokera Compact Intermitant fault

BingoBongo · 4 Feb 2008

2 year old compact 24 works fine on ch for a couple of hours,when you run the hot water it stays lit until the tap is shut then most of the time locks out.Changed aps and ch/hw thermistors ,still the same.After the lockout when you reset it,it doesnt always light when sparking.(Ignition board?)
Vokera`s tech line were about as much use as a chocolate teapot."eh! eh! eh!,if its intermitant it could be anything"Ive noticed similar posts and just wondering if any1 had some USEFULL info/advice cheers

It sounds to me as if it could be overheating as a result of limescale in the primary heat exchanger.

I would recommend a competent heating engineer but it sounds as if you dont want to pay for one!

IT would appear that your diagnostic techniques were mastered in the cattle farming areas of the USA.
