You wouldn't believe it. A knock on the top right of the UP2 has triggered the heating. took 3 knocks, the first 2 briefly demanded heating (temp on boiler flashes) and rescinded it, the third was permanent. If the UP2 needs replacement, could get a replacement front unit for the UP2 or switch...

I have the following setup: Glow-worm 30R regular boiler Hot water cylinder with cylinder thermostat British Gas UP2 programmer (Invensys) Honeywell T6360B1028 mechanical room thermostat Drayton MA1 3-port motorised valve The problem: System was fine before summer. No work was done. Now...

Apologies @FrodoOne , this is my first post. I don't think the LAP tube had any diagrams to help me, but ultimately this was what worked for me: but this is what I tried first which didn't work: (I had two unterminated wires at the other end, maybe I needed to remove them/short). Perhaps this...

Ok, it was exactly that, but I left the LED starter in the circuit - not sure if I should bypass that too? Any major differences in life/light?

Or do I just need to short the ballast? But that scares me since on the right tombstone live going in is also sent out all the way to the left tombstone so wouldn't that short live and neutral on the left tombstone gets the voltage according to the meter. Or perhaps left tombstone doesnt short...

Context: - This fixture is daisy chained and this stopped working (with new tubes / starters) a few months back. The subsequent fixtures in the chain are fine. - I opened it up and checked with my voltage detector that the current is entering but not leaving the ballast. - I bought an LED tube...
