I do not claim to be an expert, but I know that most modern boilers need a minimum 22/28mm supply (extra cost), we now fit boilers so large in their gas consumption they use up 32kw of energy to heat the water (extra cost) compared to a lowly 15 kw for a basic cast iron wall mounted boiler. I...

I left BG and now run my own small fireplace showroom, wish I had opened up a boiler spares shop instead. Some ex BG lads I know who took that direction are minted now ! I have at loads of "old" balanced flue cast iron boilers I service every year. One multifunction valve, tc lead &...

You do not state what type of fire you are buying, I presume you are purchasing an inset type gas fire. In my opinion I have found too many sales staff incorrectly quote class 1 or class 2 when referring to depth of fire that will be recessed into your chimney opening. Normally, in my...

[/img] One of the oldest boilers I have seen for a while. :P

Thank you Petit_Pablo, just the answer I was looking for.. Shame the MI is not more helpful, new pcb diagnosed from MI fault finding chart, no mention of sensor related problem. more expense. Never had this problem with the "nasty old" standard boilers no pcb, no sensors, no flame...

Yes . Pilot perfect, tc lead sensor probe has strong pilot contact, not lifting off, no blockage from poc sensing tube. After new pcb installed boiler fired ok and has run for 24 hours. Now customer has indicated that it has gone to lock out, boiler off red neon on permanently. My experience...

Fault was boiler switched itself off. Red neon light on all time. Switch boiler stat (potentiometer) off to reset boiler, fired up and went off within 5 mins. Defo all external controls working ok , flow pipe from boiler freezing cold so not overheated etc, MI parts list shows a "thermostat...

Just replaced pcb on this model boiler (as per MI fault finding chart) still having problems. I read a previous post from here that "it was best to change sensor" at the same time as pcb? Is this a known fault? it is not identified in the fault finding chart.

Cheers breezer, the "little box" I think you refer to is the diagram for a Reson 8 bell box, nice if I had one! would make it simpler for a thick gas fitter, which is what I am ! cheers again,

1st image is Optima panel, other is alarm bell box. Yes I have a multimeter.

reading from the Optima panel the outside bell connectors read: + - T A D B with strobe scb bell written underneath

I am trying to wire the above box to an Accenta/Optima panel. I have + - T A D B strobe scb bell in panel and need to know what wire to connect where in bell box. - ve supply A - ve bell B -ve tamper C...

Another useful link, just follow the "next" button . Then press any one of telephone ext. socket picture. From a broadband site but has very good diagram of inside BT box. http://www.dslzoneuk.net/socket.php

Symptoms are: Stops with drum full just before spin cycle starts beeping with "ended" light. Drained and cleaned filter at front lower right hand side. set it to spin and again spins for a while and stops with drum full of water. rather horrible noise from lower part of machine when it...

Is there a section anywhere to get advise on a dodgy sky dish?

I use a 15mm compression fitting to push over the mangled ends, or a nut off the compression fitting and gently spin that over the pipe.

Thanks for your advise so far. I am now pretty sure it will be a neutral fault in cu, it does not trip the breaker when fuse spur powered up it trips the main rcd. it is a split board so only knocks off part of cu. Thanks again for help and advise.

Yes it is wired into rcd cu. Yes I did wire it myself. Just had whole house rewired and laboured with part P sparky. I will check neutral onto bus bar. Thanks.

New Optima compact alarm panel trips breaker in consumer unit when powered up? Sparky is satisfied no fault with new fuse spur and when I disconnect live into new panel it does not trip. Sparky says it could be transformer faulty in new panel? Any help or advise gratefully received.
