Can anyone help.
Rads Work Fine, Hot water is intermittent but mostly not working.
Maybe the diverter valve I don't know, checked everything over, the only thing that doesn't seem to be working is the diverter valve header motor, the pin should come out and push the pin down in the diverter valve, but its not doing anything. I watched as we turn the tap on and it didn't come out, I trying pushing the pin down manually in the Diverter valve but that didn't nothing either.
We stripped the hole thing down cleaning ti drain it, and checked everything, then it would work for a moment like we were magically touching the thing that was the problem without know it I would get piping hot water for about a minutes, then it would go cold/warm again, the rads alway work, be on rad/water or just Hot water, like the water is seeping into them all the time.
Like now I had a good 5 minutes of hot water, long enough for a quick shower then it went cold again, if I wait like 2 minutes and turn the water on again I maybe or maybe not be hot again?!?
Could it be more electrical, maybe the board is playing up.
Any Ideas, I keep hearing change the diverter valve, but that would mean taking the whole boiler off the wall, as getting to the nuts at the back is impossible.
Also if not solved, it's like a 13 year old boiler and its pretty crappy, I was considering an upgrade, and suggestions.
