i will let you know :wink:

i replaced the thermistors today.but still the same :( the engineer is saying that there is nothing left to check and its the board? but cannot say which one.

the engineer is a family friend so did't charge to check it out for me :wink: as the fan was on constant he first changed the flow switch and that cured that problem. We have checked the operation of the air pressure switch and the feed to it it works fine. Checked the flue for blockage all...

had a engineer out to the combi today, the flow switch was faulty and was replaced. but the combi still does not ignite :cry: he suggested a new pcb to be fitted.

just doing all checking myself have a back ground in mechanics :roll: its just i had a engineer out to it and he just took one look and just said it needs replacing without doing any checks. i,m having someone else coming out to it today so fingers crossed :?:

there is continuity between both terminals on the flow switch at all times but not checked for voltage yet. i have removed the flow switch which seems to have a brass rod with a magnet stuck on top. cleaned the rod up and checked for smooth operation seemed fine. done the same for the ch flow...
