Thanks for the 'dummies guide' to diverter valves, the process of elimination has been really helpful. I will be calling the guy back, see if he can diagnose the fault, if now, he is 'Outta Here' Once again, thanks all

Thanks for the replies, yes with everything off then the hot tap turned on the led ignition light comes on the front of the panel, and after about 5 minutes the radiators start to get warm. So why would the divert valve not be working, it is practically brand new, but everyone is suggesting this...

Sorry, thought I had answered that, yes with heating off, and tap on the boiler sturs into life, I can see where one switch is, where would the other be located ?

Thanks for all the help but still confused, I was there when he changed the diverter valve, definately new, I sat the whole time with him ( pick up tips that way !! ). I have had my head under the unit, the micro switch makes when water call, little black plastic disc there, circlip tightly in...

I will try the idea of running the tap to see if I get hot radiators. I do remember when he struggled to fix it, the little micro switch was very difficult to set, he said it was right at the end of its adjustment range. Just to recap, with everything off, if I turn my hot water on the boiler...

Think I need to clear this up, when the heating is off, I get a little bit of hot water then it goes off. If I turn the heating on and wait about 5 minutes and turn the tap on then I get hot water. To turn the heating on I press a booster button on the control console, this turns the heating on...

Hi Everyone, Happy New year to you all. I have an old Worchester CDi24, Only been in the house 7 months, but for a few months now I have only had hot water if I put the centrall heating on first, I have had the diverter valve changed, and the boiler fires up when the heating is off and I call...

If it is scaled, how do I tell, is it repairable, coz it sounds expensive :oops:

What the heat exchanger is slowly giving up the ghost, so why is my heating piping hot?, I imagine changing the HE is time consuming and costly, I maybe better advised to look at updating it. Is the CD24 an old model? plus I could do with some more ummffff, 3 bed bungalow, only made for 1 bed flat??

I have had exactly the same problem, but I have since changed ( by corgiman for 180 wraps ) and now all I get is warm water, no good to wash up un, It gets slightly warmer if I turn the central heating on !!!!! Whats the crack, any suggestions, Corgiman says boiler is shot, so why is heating...

Oldish Worchester boiler, had problem with water supply, since then I have limited warm water ( not hot ) If I put the heating on ( that is okay ), we get moderate warm water. I have had the diverter valve replaced, but getting worse. Could the repairs to my water supply, and muck in the supply...
