The valve on the cylinder does not operate at all when those switches are turned off, specifically the right switch, there is still power going to the both of them, if I turn them off, turn HW on via the programmer and increase the cylinder temp until I hear it click the valve does nothing, only...

That'd be another thing I'll need the electrician to look at then as both those switches were turned on when we moved in and the hot water went cold while we were waiting for an oil delivery. Another thing, now that the motorised valve has been installed, regardless of the wiring at this stage...

I had a plumber around, they replaced the motorised valve in the garage, they're having an electrician around next week due to the following: When CH is requested: - Oil Boiler does not start - Pump does not start - Replaced CH motorised valve is powered and opens When HW is requested: -...
