Cost me £50 for part wasn't a KIA own part. Was a pattern part. I was thinking it could be a dodgy sensor but until I can me Mits on a reader don't know if it's same fault?

Car died yesterday, plugged in a emc reader and got a orb code for crank sensor. Duly replaced fired up... Great. Drove home turned off needed to go out later and you guessed it , won't fire. The engine is turning over just not firing up, if I am lucky and persistent it will sometimes fire...

Swap it for a punumatic/air pressure type far better IMHO. The cable type kink and rust easily in the dampness.

That's a Drayton lifestyle

I would stick with level 3 you will cover your basic ACS elements among other quals like unvented, water regs part L and such. At time I did my basic ACS I was offered extra units a discounted price. Level 3 should take no more 9 - 12 months to do. Well worth it.

if there was leak on this boiler when isolated the water would be easy to see?? check the prv isnt chucking out water use a milk bottle or container to catch water over a period of time when heating is running. also just a thought and this is a huge maybe unlikely but have seen it done. is there...

Sorry my bad unica is a bit of a give away derr as far as I can remember this is a fan fault code, fan assembly isn't cheap and does require a rgi as the fan is linked to gas valve and premix's with correct air to gas ratio. If you can't get a good independent engineer vokera do a fixed price...

If you have good mains and want mains pressure hot water could always go with system boiler and unvented cylinder?

This could be air in the flow and return from the cylinder?? More likely the return, this may have happened when system was drained to replace 3port valve.

Is the valve a three port mid-position valve giving control to hot water only heating only or both Or is it a standard 3port valve where it's heating and hot water or hot water. Usually these valves give priority to hot water then heating if installed wrong way it will give priority to...

recommend this book tells all you need to know about plumbing to level 2 standard. isbn 0-435-40194-7. a lot of the power points you will see will be directly out this book. technically you don't need any quals to be a plumber ie wet work, just like you don't need quals to be a chippie...
