You will need to explain exactly what you mean by "cuts off" in semi engineering terms before I would have any chance of guessing whats wrong with it.

the boiler fires up for about 5 min then the flames goes out then when it cools down it does not fire up again.if you reset it it fires up but then dies down again .

its a reset switch,also when i turn on the boiler the radiators upstairs are hot but the ones downstairs are luke warm then the boiler cuts out but will not fire back up on its own when the upstairs rads have cooled down ,is this because the boiler has some kind of saftey device that want let it fire up on its own could it be the pump that is at fault.
 
I have a 14e and my sister has a 20e. Both have the exact same problem and after an expensive visit from the gas board who told me what the symtoms of the problem was and that my board 'was on its way out' I had a look through these forums. Another user replaced the NTC thermistor which solved this problem. My problem is finding one or a part number for one and how to replace it. I believe it costs about £10 and is much cheaper fix that the £85 pcb board the engineer suggested I replace.
