Update !! New thermostat fuse fitted and all back up and running (y) I even managed to return the heater element I didn't need for a full refund. Mega thanks to jj4091for advice and diagnosis methods. It just goes to prove that with a little bit of determination, the ability to use a...

Thank you very much for your prompt and very good advice. I managed to conduct your suggested tests without electrocuting myself :sneaky: No power recorded through the plug and socket connection. Took the front off the machine and found the thermostat fuse, and as you guessed no continuity...

Thanks Ian I think you are right and I have actually taken the easy route by placing the red and yellow in a common terminal and the hive is working as it should. The wiring is a bit of a mystery as to what goes where so unless someone else comes up with a definitive answer for removing the stat...

Hello good people I hope you can steer me to what I should do to achieve the above. My system is a Y plan with my boiler, hotwater tank, water supply tank, 3 port valve and wiring centre all located in my attic. I have installed hive and all appears to be working fine by connecting the live...
