Potterton Performa Fault Follow-Up. This Is What Was Wrong

[seniorservice]

Recently I posted the following post about my performa that produced HW OK, until you used the CH. Then it would lock out, and be a bugger to get going again.

Well, it was a faulty fan pressure switch.

The first engineer was a parts swapper who couldn't sort it, and cost me. The second fixed it in 10 mins.

Hope this helps others with this problem!

to use the term "engineer" when referring to a parts changer is an insult to our industry (not a dig btw)

be some short course cowboy that knows nothing

glad you got sorted
