yes fitted case back properly very easy, one screw and 2 clips. my worry is that it isn't fixed properly as now don't know for sure what he actually did, but probably just the water pressure sensor ( but not certain he even did that ) and he recharged the expansion chamber the bit i don't like...

so should that gauge match the pressure that the digital screen is showing and if so at all times, within some degree of accuracy? as it was very different?

so excuse my ignorance, but aren't the system and expansion connected and so therefore have the same pressure, or is it showing the pressure on the other side in some way? am genuinely interested :-) one thing for sure is before it was very low and now it isn't btw invoice was changed so sorted...

i have just had a fix done to my boiler, the engineer said he'd done the pressure valve and the pump, i wasn't watching, but having checked after it looks to me that the pump wasn't replaced. although the work will be paid for by b'gas i'm not happy that if i'm right b'gas will think i have a...

well found wire snapped inside plastic right at the tacho end, managed to scape away some of the block and solder a new wire in place and now properly spins up again begs the question of who wrote the software that allows it to run without a tacho when no temp sensors connected... will do...

ok just realised that the lights up the side are a binary code of the error code and discovered that the error is F02 which means motor/tacho issue which fits with what is going on i tried to measure the resistance of the 2 wires coming from the acho and seems to be open is it...

no will check that, although is suspect the pcb power circuits as it would explain some of the odd behaviour i think wish i had a circuit diagram and the laptop software to test/flash eeprom annoying how hotpoint are now shipping with the eeproms soldered to the board to make things even...

this looks like the thermistor on top of the heater box i have whereas the one in the washer heater is part of the heater element and doesn't seem to be removable do i have this wrong? and this is what the heater box looks like

has anyone else got any opinions on what is going on?

i don't understand...why does disconnecting the other thermistor on top of the heater box change things and separately doing the same in the washer unit also change the behaviour?
