Thanks Noseall. Dave

Hi all, I had a quick search and couldn't find the answer to my question.... I am planning to float a 150mm x 20mm engineered wood plank floor (5mm oak top layer) over a concrete subfloor. The floor will cover the whole of our downstairs, including the WC. Is it possible to fix the toilet...

I changed the PCB and fan and it now works :D ! I did not test the old fan with the new PCB so don't know if it was actually faulty, although the boiler seems quieter now. Thanks for all of your help 8) Dave

Yes it has burnt through a number of connections underneath the board! I should be receiving my new PCB early next week! Thanks Dave

I found this thread on a different forum. http://forum.plumbingpages.com/glow-wormultimate-nightmare-vt708.html It sounds like the same issue as me. I am getting about 76ohms across the fan, which seems about right. I guess I will need to fit a new PCB to diagnose whether the real cause...

I have checked the pump (connected directly to mains with fused plug) and it works. And the pump also comes on if I turn the thermostat on the boiler off :oops: :roll: Since then I have had a good look at the PCB (unbolted from its carrier) and underneath the circuit board I can see that...

Kier. Thanks for the reply. The PCB still blows the fuse when I disconnect the fan and gas valve (leaving the pump connected). When I connect the fan and gas valve, but disconnect the pump, the fuse does not blow so it seems to be something in the pump or its wiring. Its strange that the pump...

Well, when I disconnect the pump from the PCB, the fuse does not blow. I have checked the resistance across the pump and it reads 324ohms. Is this a normal reading? Either way, I suppose the next step is to replace the pump? Thanks Dave

Thanks guys. A nice task for tomorrow when I have been to Maplins to buy some more F1A fuses.... Dave

Yes it is the PCB with two fuses and it blows the fuse at the bottom of the board, labelled F1. So it looks like a pump check would be my first port of call. Thanks Dave

Hello I have searched through the old threads, but not been able to find an answer to this one. The Glow worm manual has not helped me with this one either. On Sunday, our Gloworm Ultimate 40FF central heating boiler cut out and a short investigation revealed tha the switched live PCB fuse...
