Ideal mini C28 HE

[Paul mcgreevy]

Got a problem on this ideal mini, at first would only fire on H/W for about 10 seconds boiler lit then would shut down, at first I thought overheat stat via the fault finding guide, I then tried linking it out still no C/H nor would boiler fire in H/W mode, so I put wires back on the stat, I then spoke to tech help who said it's deffo the C/H thermistor preventing the boiler from lighting, iv changed the thermistor and still nothing! Seems to run through the sequence then locks out showing ignition fault I think it said! Is it possibly a faulty pcb ? It's the model with 1 pcb board. Possibly dodgy relay ? Hope somebody can help with this! Without giving smart arse comments!! Many thanks

You go ahead and keep changing parts....
A common fault on these boilers....usually won't require any parts at all.

 

[Steelmasons]

So what was your reply when tech asked for your gas safe number?.

 

[Paul mcgreevy]

What do you mean steelmasons?? I gave them my gas safe number of course....

 

[Paul mcgreevy]

Oh dear, Steely, we've got another Mr Angry on here.....

 

[Paul mcgreevy]

Not angry snes I post a thread asking for advice and just get witty comments, pointless really! Still failing to understand how he can't or won't supply usefull advice,

Because you are on an open forum and site rules stop anyone from giving advice on here that is combustion/safety related , join the combustion chamber and you will get the answer you need, and I would remove the post on here with your gas safe number if I was you, in the CC only registered gas engineers can see and comment
