Hi All, Two jobs in oen week. Cant believe my luck!!!!! Anyway this Vokera had no HW. Boiler is running away and all the Heat is going into the CH so we have a DV problem. Now i pulled off the motor for the DV and am getting 240 V to it. The arm of the motor doesnt not appear to move...

No takers???? S

Im starting to love these boilers!!! Servcied this unit at Christmas and everything was fine with it. Guy phoned me today to say that everytime he turns it off for a couple of days, sticks it back on its goes to lock out. Turns the reset button and away she goes merrily all night. Now my...

Oilman, Didnt have time to check that as the snow was starting to build up on my back!!!! I suspected the high limit stat but i thought they were pretty much bullet proof. Anyway i have a spare so ill stick taht on and see if it solves it. Cheers for the info on the oil line. G

Called round to this one this evening on my way home. Basically it goes to over heat every 3 or 4 days (random) and she has to hit the reset button to get it going again. Pump is set at 3 and spinning away merrily. Stuck a screwdriver on it and to my ear and it sound smooth...

Hi JIm, Cheers for the support again. That Glow worm nearly broke my heart. I think you said you were going to send me some photos of your test equipment. Is that still possible? Thanks in advance Sean

Hi Numpty 1, Are you based in Belfast or did you used to live there? And who are you working for? As is blatantly obvious im only finding my feet and it would be good to have a local contact. You been doing gas work for long? Hope to chat soon mate grill

HI again Jim, My email address is [email protected] if you want to send me anything. I have just started off working for myself part time and every job i go to is hard work!!! This site is invaluable!!. Only do a couple a week so can get out practice very quickly!!! Basically i would be no...

Jim, Its grill here off the forum. You seem t o be in the same situation as myself i.e. finding your feet. Was just wondering how things are going and if you ahev picked up anymore useful tips? Grill

Well i muct be seriously unlucky because most of the ones i have experienced so far seems to be rusted right in there and ONLY my magic screwdriver will do!!!! I can buy it again as set of three but im just too miserable!!! G

Nah im being deadly serious. I have only ever found one screwdriver to remove these without stripping the threads and that is the one i lost!!! I bought a pozi drive 2 point to replace it but it dont seem to be cutting the mustard!!!! I did say it was random!!! G

This might seem like a random question so bear with me. When removing the screws that hold in the blast tube on Riello burners to change nozzle i always found that one side was relatively loose and the other side was stuck right in there!! I had a long reach screwdriver which was the only...

Just for your info new PCB did the trick. G

Its a valid point stingray. The electrodes were the first thing i checked and cleaned and when i do get a spark it is a healthy one. All connection etc appear fine but that is me doing that assumption thing again!!!!! As for the phoning WB if i had that option i would be elected!!!! I...

Yeah i thought about the APS also. I didnt have a chance to test as it works everytime i turned it on and off after i got it going the first time. It does it on both heat and HW. Dont know if this make any sense but when it doesnt spark you can hear a series of quick ticks from the board...

Hi mate, Big copper sulphide problem in belfast!!!! first thing i checked. took the gas valve out and it was clean as a whistle. Problem was defo no spark as when we do have a spark it lights no sweat. G

No probs tony, Will only post in there from here on in. What about the transformer/PCB question?? G

Update, When i got out to the boiler again i turned it on and it went through the run sequence and got to ignition stage but i didnt have any spark at the electrodes. I turned it off and on again and this time i has a spark and it lit. Checked everything else you said and it all was...

Tony, You got a part number for the diaphragm? G
