Thank,s all for the help. Looks like a new PCB was the right answer all he time. It also looks like I should use the BG "one price fix" service. If the installer I have contacted has not got the part yet, that is what I can do, as I am away for a while and unless he collects and installs the...

The PCB has a black casing. I see in looking at spares suppliers' sites that the original PCB is replaced with one of a different part number. An improved version? I also wondered why they are so expensive and why they are not repairable. They cost more than a small telly and that can...

My Ideal ICOS HE24 boiler is showing nothing on the front panel (and not working.) There is no diagnostic information (O. c, L-F etc) in fact it looks as if there is no power getting there at all. I have tried the obvious and the main supply fuse is OK, I am getting 240 Volts at the input to...

Thanks Tim, I already have a two gang switch. I will try to persuade my wife to switch off the alcove before turning on the wall lights. By the way all failures have occurred on switch-on as far as I know. One was quite noisy!

OK to clarify, the bulbs that keep failing are GLS Sylvania brand (well the last two were, the first was a Woolies bulb that had been in for abouit a week.) The alcove is lit by two 20W halogens fed by the transformer unit. I am reluctant to keep putting fresh bulbs in to find they last...

I don't know what size your room is but I suspect that you will need more than four. I replaced a fitting with three R80 spots with a new fitting holding four minispots. The room is now badly lit as the spots have a narrower focus. I was going to fit a few downlighter spots until I found out...

The bulbs are Sylvania GLS bulbs and the transformer is a 60 VA model with cos phi of .85. It is a Phillips unit and I assume it is supressed already.

I have two wall lights and the bulb in one of them keeps blowing. They last only about two days. The fitting in question is close to an alcove, which has halogens operated off a transformer which is on the same circuit. Any ideas anyone?

Drill bit was duff before and certainly is now! Cheap bits do not last. Get a good one. You are not my son by any chance? it happened to him on Sunday.
