just to confirm the pin on the flow-valve should shoot out (but wont if the diaphragm is shot), the diverter wont move as it will be separated from the valve that controls it.

you've got it! :lol:

from what you are saying you haven't checked the operation of the flow valve and you are just guessing the diverter valve is seized? guessing and replacing this part will end up costing a few quid, wasting ya time, wont fix the problem and probably cause ya more problems with the boiler. start...

are ya sure the diverter is seized? have you separated the flow valve (which houses the dhw diaphragm) from the diverter and checked by manually pushing the pin across? whilst they are separated i would also check the correct operation of the flow valve by turning the hw tap on and ensuring the...

what have you got the pump set at?

which part have they said they cant get? i would guess at the wax capsule being at fault with the description you have given, which is still available

id also describe it as a bit of luck but based on a educated guess. faults with dhw/leaking hydraulics are really common with this model of boiler. eg a really common fault is the dhw flow switch sticking which i would of tested before striping out the boiler to replace the diaphragm. another...

what model is it? what is wrong with the valve? you will get doing it that way, you also need to drain the system water from the boiler

How about the isolation valve and flow pipe from a si2 :mrgreen:

Tbh all I seem to be doing at the min is unblocking pipework :twisted:

here's a few jobs i've done who also didn't bother with flushing/adding chemicals

obviously you have never dealt with ferolli :lol:

sorry didn't realise you wanted a yes or no answer.. no

yeah, the system will prob be ok for a wireless stat but the receiver would prob have to be fitted next to the motorised valve(s). you would then be able to remove the old stat and wiring. have a look in the airing cupboard or where the cylinder is and tell us how many valve there is.
