Quick follow up in case this is useful for anyone in the future, turned out to be a board issue with two overheated resistors, did well for nearly 25 years though!

Thanks, I am now confused though, I'm certainly not asking for advice on how to repair the fault but simply for discussion on what could be causing this issue. My background is aerospace engineering and I naturally have a curious mind so problem solving then passing on the information to my...

Thanks, my post was poorly worded, appreciate why advice is not allowed so edited, any suggestions of the likely issue so I can pass this on to my engineer would be great to save cost of potential multiple visits as he's not local.

Hello everyone, so I have an old WB 24CDi with a CH fault (HW seems fine). The problem was only apparent occasionally after reaching temperature last winter but now from cold it continually attempts to go through the ignition cycle but mostly fails but with the occasional full ignition but only...

Thanks Bunnyman, I took out the DV and a load of black debris came out so I gave the DV a good wash out and Vaselined the spindle (and slid it in and out a few times) and the leak has, for the time being stopped so I guess a very small piece of debris may have crept between the spindle and...

Hey guys, can anyone offer me any advice on my previous post? Any comments from the professionals will be greatly appreciated!

Hi everyone, I know this thread is three years old but I have a leak from the spindle coming from the diverter valve on my three year old Ecotec 831. It's clearly CH liquid as it is yellow from the X100 which I added after trying to solve my cold rad issues with X400 a couple of months ago...

That was a VERY quick reply, much appreciated! It sounds promising to me, maybe a reapplication once a year to be safe. Definitely a lot easier than digging out two recently installed cubicles I'd say...

I've been through a similar learning process and instead of digging out the grout from two shower cubicles I'm going to try the Lithofin Grout Protector. An update on it's performance would be good to hear after a couple of years? Has it done a good job in keeping out the water from the joints...
