Last time was 2018 or 2019 roughly.. was leaking/dripping water at the front pushrod. There was a time before that too.. can't remember when though. This is the third time since 2006.

Buying direct from Baxi? I have previously used the refurb kits off eBay without problems.

I have undone the screw on the middle of the pump and when the boiler is activated HW or CH is switched on it is spinning. i can see it spinning and when touch it with the screwdriver feel is spinning. It is the diverter valve, the refurb kit I got off ebay must not have been the best quality, I...

the pump spins fine.. is making all the right noises and getting hot. I undid the middle screw, water came out and used a screw driver and it was spinning/turning without any issues. What else do I need to check on the pump? Also will just taking apart the diverter valve and reassembling it be...

how can you diagnose if it is the diverter valve or not? Both the pushrods come out and activate the microswitch on it when the CH is activated.. can there still be blockage or parts in the Diverter valve not working properly, is worth me taking it apart again or getting another refurb kit for...

The pump seems to be working, it is spinning, making noise and getting hot. It was working yes, just the radiators were not getting very hot and only hot towards the top only. I then switched off the valves of all but one radiator to see if was a balancing issue but that did not work, the single...

The heating flow pipe is hot under the boiler too.. but none of the radiators or the pips on either side of the radiators. The first pipe in the picture attached (1st pipe on the left is hot)

Very frustrating, I tried closing off all the radiators except one to see if it was balancing issue but that did not work as the radiator which was left on did not get hot at all... which prior to closing the valves on all the other radiators did get hold. I have tried opening the valves on all...

Thank you. I have checked the pump and it spins fine. I will try flushing the system with F3 leave it for a week or 2 then drain again and use F1 see if that helps.

Thanks guys. Is there anyway to clean/clear the pump if there is any blockages in it as my pump gets super hot? Or do you just flush and clean the entire system with the likes of Fernox F3 or Senitel X400? Thanks for your help.

Is that better than using Fernox F3 cleaner and then F1 inhibitor?

My radiators are not fully heating up, they are not getting very hot and not hot towards the bottom on the radiators. I have bleed them all of air. My hot water is hot and working great, I have a Baxi Combi 80 Eco boiler, I have refurbished the diverter value on it. I will try switching off all...

Thanks and you keep it open till all the air stops coming out.. should little bits of water come out like when you bleed a radiator?

No it is fitted. I just uploaded a pic that I downloaded to show which parts I was referring to

Hi all, How do you bleed the air out of a pump for a Baxi combi 80Eco boiler. Is it by the valve of top of that pump or the big screw at the front? If it is the value on top (black valve on top of the gold colour part) do you open till water comes out like how you bleed a radiator? Thank you.

I have managed to resolve the issue, some moisture/water must have gotten into the pcb compartment/housing, making the pcb damp.. I used a hair dryer to gently warm it up to dry off any moisture and now the boiler is back to life and working fine again. As in the the following thread from 2008 -...

Thank you, with regards to the PCB, there are two versions of that for my boiler, one with 2 and another with a 3 pressure switch connection. Where on the PCB is this connection

Yes that switch goes on, both the little push rods come out on the diverter value push out and press the switches

okay, will do tonight thanks for your help

Yes, everything has been turned back on. Thanks.
