mainly this is a pointless post BUT i do EON, Npower ETC call outs when they've none of their own engineers, to be honest i don't think any of them will survive to cause BG a issue because they have so many silly things they don't cover. every 1 of the customers i've been to told me they'll...

pick and choose all you want, give it a few years and you'll be eating those words when you're chasing work that you said you'd never do! besides, what has the op said to offend you so much, all he requested was some advice regarding this problem before he called in someone AND as you should...

i took the burner out and looked in the end.

chill out guys, i know what a coil is i was simply seeing woods for trees in your rants. no need to go off on 1 trotting off on your high horse!! we all mis-read things on computers from time to time. i checked the coil (solinoid) and that was fine, i even replaced it with a fresh 1 and it...
