I have swapped the oven and hob plug around. Unfortunately this hasn't made any difference. I imagine the voltage output would be reduced across both the plugs. I shall try and check the voltage levels tomorrow. Do you know how much voltage the sockets should have?

No but i can obtain a voltage meter. Would i need to test the voltage output from the MCB? The thought did cross my mind, but was not sure if that was a common problem. Would it not be easier to replace the circuit?

I am after some assistance. I managed to break the oven today after flicking the MCB switch to OFF whilst the oven was heating up. The MCB switch has since be reset but the oven is still broken. It is also worth noting that the hob which runs off the same MCB switch does still have power. I...

ChrisR you are spot on. The heating is timed to come on once in the morning and again in the early evening. I generally have alot more success in the evening with the heating than in the morning (which doesn't help with the whole getting up for work thing) I wonder if this might be the...

Hi there, My Manrose bathroom extractor fan has stopped working and i want to check to see if its broken or can be repaired. Have tried to remove the fan but there are no screws or fittings. Please can someone advise how to open up/remove the fan from the wall without breaking? many thanks

Dear experts, I have a small problem with the central heating in the flat in that it works fine but in order for it to come automatically you need to turn on a hot water tap. this then forces the pilot light to flare up and start pumping heat into the radiators. I am not sure why this...

Thanks Baxpoti, Have already made sure that radiators have been bled both dials on the pssure meter are still just about inside the green area (1-3) as aposed to the red area (3-4) of the dial. Radiator closest to the boiler fluctates between hot and warm. a ny more suggestions

Hi there, We have a Potterton PUMA 100 combi boiler This morning the low system pressure light was on and there was no heating or hot water. I decided to let some mains water into the CH return and that seemed to rectify my problem the Light went out straight away and the hot water became...

Well it looks as if the heating is back up and running. Just one final query though .... I have completed the first phase of the balancing heating system process as per Nige F's earlier comments on this thread. I have one-by-one closed all the valves on the already working radiators to...

Is it towel radiator? I had a similar problem with mine and for years i thought it didn't have a bleed valve. but hten one day i had a good look round it and discovered a nut at top on the rear of the raditor that can be unscrewed using an adjustable spanner to bleed. There was nuts on...

bster. What is the best way to check the circuit pressure? I have had a quick look at around the boiler unit. It does have an LED which comes on if the pressure is low but so far that has remined idol, so i guess all is well in that department? Unfortunately i am quite new to this and...

Tincup. Not sure that i have an F&E tank as we live in a single level Flat. Where abouts would such a thing be located? I remeber having one in our old house but that was up in the attic. Thats where i understood that type of thing to be located. Please could you elaborate Thanks

Thanks Nige F. I had a look at the Wiki site but what exactly am i looking for as it doesn't really say much about balancing heating system with Combi boilers. I'll have another check a bit later. From your reply It sounds like I got the balancing theory right but the practical side of...

Please can someone help me. I live in a 1st floor flat which is long and narrow. I have a Potterton Puma combi boiler situated at one end of the flat (next to Kitchen) all the raditors in my flat become hot once the heating comes on except the one in my living room at the other end of the...
