    CH Boiler won't fire up

    give us make/model of boiler and replies might be easier ie. Is it a combi? Does it have any markings? rough age? hot water ok? any previous faults? Are you really sure the thermostats/timer are switched on?

    Ideal Response 120 - Hard to work on.

    suspect the thermistor but with such a vague description it's hard to tell sorry. The thermistor is the plug under the h/e behind the fan if memory serves. Out of interest, is this boiler fitted in a flat by any chance?

    my faith is restored nickso, if the rest were like you then BG wouldn't have the rep it so richly deserves these days. I work for a rival company these days and their "retention" team are reduced to name calling and downright lies to convince their customers to come back.

    wasn't having a go, agile has the regs off by heart, I on the other hand, can't be bothered to quote them to someone who thinks it perfectly OK to start DIYing on gas appliances. Obviously they have no children or don't give a damn. either way may the yappie dog strike them down.....here endeth

    nickso, performance targets were the reason I left BG. You cannot hit performance targets AND do the job properly without making sales too. I don't know about anyone else but I thought this industry was about keeping people safe, after all, that;s why I joined.

    by taking the cover off you have already breached the gas safety regulations and unless you are CORGI then you have no idea of the can of worms that you have just opened, Agile will happily elaborate for you.....
