    Light wired wrong - what actually happened

    I replaced a transformer on a hall light. There's another identical light in a different part of the hall. Stupidly I didn't make a note of which light wires connected to which circuit wires. Anyway after wiring up and switching on both lights came on but all bulbs in both lights were at...

    No CH when hot water switched on

    Just to give an update on this....the builder sent an electrician today who confirmed the problem was indeed the programmer. But he couldn't supply a new one - the plumber has to do that - he just wires them! Until then he's done something to the wiring which causes the heating to come on...

    Hi Dan - thanks for your quick reply. Yes - if say, running on timer, both green lights are on. Visually timer is working correctly. Just had a browse through this forum - looks as if culprit could be the motorised valve (4043H) Ian

    No CH when hot water switched on

    House is only 6 months old so hopefully will get this fixed under warranty. Noticed recently radiators not heating on morning (Honeywell ST9400C timer, Ideal Logic 24 boiler). After some experimenting it seems that if the controller has HW on (green light on) then switching Heating on...
