RESULT :) ...... fitted the new photocell and it's working great again !!! One thing to think about. I'm not saying I did this on the previous photocell, I can't remember, but something to think about before testing sensitive components. "Regarding the risks of introducing a voltage through...

No, it's not that, I've cleaned the old one, then replaced it with a new one, which I suspect is also faulty.

I've measured the motor output voltage today, exactly 50v, so it still points to photocell or control box. I'm still waiting for the cell to arrive. I will reply as soon as I know more. Thanks

Thanks again, I do have a meter, just not sure if the motor needs to be running etc to take measurement ? The photocell will be here in the next day or so, but I can still measure the 50v if I know how to do it.

Thanks for your reply. I have got another photocell on it's way, so I'll try that. How do I go about measuring the 50v supply from the motor please? If this reading is not 50v, would the motor still run as normal, as it was working ok before the photocell problem ?

I have been having problems with intermittent ignition issues with this burner. It runs but no ignition. I have done some maintenance, cleaned out the boiler chamber and plates, fan and casing cleaned, burner tube cleaned, nozzle filter cleaned, all is running ok, apart from ignition. I read...
