Thanks Tony. I have disconnected the two wires from the pressure switch and connected them to a normal on off switch, the boiler is working a lot better and staying on a lot longer. I think some of the problem is the thing is full of air but I am gradually getting it out. You are right...

Now when link up yhr toe central heating pressure switch wires I am gettind "low sysytem pressure" light on, when I connect them back to the pressure switch I get nothing.

Hi Gas, pressure vessel was replced about 6 months ago. I have tried linking out the cetral heating prerssure switch and the DHW flow switch and it has made no difference. When the hot waer tap is turned on I can hear a "click" from the DHW pressure switch.

Thanks gas. Could you possibly give me a little more detail? Thanks for the help.

Hi Thanks for the response, Yes you are right PCB on hinged flap, honeywell diverter. I can't coment about the heating as it's currently not in use. I have a rad off and the pipework capped off whilst I refurbish the bathroom. It has been off for about 6 weeks and the DHW water has ben...

Hi, I am sure there have been plenty of questions about these boliers before. I am hoping there is an expert lurking somewhere around here. The prroblem is this, hot water; Turn on tap, bolier fires up perfectly but switches off after about 2 minutes. the pressure gauge is on about 1.5...

The boiler is a potterton lynx 2. The shower head is brand new. Cheers.

Thanks for all the advice. I will contact the landlord I think. Going back to the start almost. Anyone know why when I turn the boiler water temp to min it doesn't make any difference and still comes out as if set to max?

Thanbks for the advice. Next question; the stop cock looks like it was last turned off in 1954 and won't budge. Any suggestions? thanks.

The 2 pipes are right next to each other. One to the tank ball-cock and the one from the bottom of the tank to the bath. So after turning the water off at the stop cock just cut both pipes and join them together (would need some kind of U- joint? so mains goes straight to the bath and not...

I know what you mean but 1 mm turn is not sufficient for the bolier to fire up. How hard is it to change the cold from tank to mains? Thanks

Thanks for replying. Not sure why cold is not from the mains. It's a rented flat so I don't know the history. If i could reduce the temp of the hot coming from the boiler then i would be laughing, right?

Recently fitted a shower to mixer taps. Hot pressure is great coming from boiler but cold pressure is rubbish because comes form tank. My solution to this was to use just the hot with the good pressure and just turn down the water temp on the boiler to ideal shower teperature. The problem is...
