Will get back to you have not been at home for a couple of days. I work away sometimes.

I think the reason my gas valve was changed was due to water damage from a storm that blew rain water into the boiler, it was across the top of the boiler as well. Bearing that in mind, it could have damaged the PCB requiring it to be replaced also. As I said before I was away from home when the...

I think it is a grundfos alpha 2. It has three speed settings, auto adapt, and a display showing the pump speed. It is currently set to auto adapt, it is hard to see the size of the pump as it is behind my hot water tank.....awkward as hell, one of the reasons I didn't replace it myself!

I assume this is a request for more information. Please could you be more specific and tell me what information you would like me to tell you.

Why does what PCB was in my boiler years ago matter. It is surely the PCB that is in it now that is relevant. I have posted a photo of the PCB I replaced, and a photo of the replacement, both if these are the newer style Siemens PCB. Both if these have shown the same 10 red flashes as a fault...

Thank you moderator, I was beginning to give up on this thread. Anyway please find attached a photo of my control panel, currently working for over 36 hrs but only lasted a couple before that. The HW is set on timer for twice a day, the CH is on all the time off a programmable thermostat.

Right then, can we agree that my boiler was installed in 2006 ( it was around the birth of my second daughter, it was done in a hurry because of this and was a direct replacement for the one that was in before, no doubt to keep installation to a minimum). As far as I know it has not had its PCB...

OK my mistake, the boiler was installed in 2006. As far as I can remember the board has not been changed, but the gas valve was replaced at one point, so it could have been done as part of that repair, I was not here when it was done, my wife dealt with it. The only other work done on the system...

This is a photo of the PCB I removed from my boiler, fitted into the spare assembly that came with the kit I bought. Unless someone has fitted that PCB before the boiler was installed, I've no idea how it got there. 1492074302891-873478042 by Migs73 posted 13 Apr 2017 at 10:06 AM Oh, and the...

Original boiler PCB

NB. The boiler was fitted brand new, in it was ALWAYS a new style PCB. I could only ever find people on the web saying that there was a fault in the PCB that was close to what I was experiencing. In know most of these related to the old style boards, but some people were mentioning the new...

I think I need to rewind and explain a bit. The boiler has always had a new style siemens PCB with the plugs to the wiring loom. The old system pump failed around Christmas and we had lots of boiler lock outs. A heating engineer replaced our pump and we were charged an arm and a leg for the...

I would like to know if anyone can tell me what the fault code on the PCB means? If I wasted (looks like I did) £200 on a PCB then so be it, but if I can get to the bottom of the boiler issue and repair it myself, then I may have saved that amount by not getting a heating engineer out. Of course...

I replaced the PCB in desperation a few weeks ago but the fault has remained. So same fault on two PCBs, the previous PCB was the original factory one. Thanks Edit: having said that it is the original wiring loom etc. I just swapped the PCB, although I did receive a full wiring loom etc with...
