Got home last night and quiet as a mouse so it must have been the pump ...thanks guys :)

Hi Guys this was actually the pump spinning away 24/7, it's now been replaced by Worcester so when I get home tonight I'll check it has resolved the issue..

perfect thanks :)

awesome thanks so i'm pretending the solid white wire twisted with the orange is actually a white/orange tracer wire ?

Here’s are picture

So I normally don't have an issue fitting an RJ45 connector onto ethernet cable but this cable already has a pure white cable twisted around the orange and the same for all the other 3 colours such as green/blue/brown. So pure white twisted around the brown, pure white twisted around the orange...

definitely the fan spinning away at about 50% of max so it's pretty obvious..causing the boiler to vibrate too due to a few bolts being lose on the cover...piece of crap boiler ..that's 4th thing on it to fail in 3 months since I have moved in...Thank god for Worcester Boiler cover :)

Ok thanks for giving me a heads up I thought it was odd to hear it spinning away 24/7 but then I've never owned a combi boiler before so wasn't sure that was normal

godamn that sucks, it's costing me money ...what do you think the issue might be ?

thanks for the reply, so the fan should be shutting down completely and the power consumption should reduce to nothing ?

It's the combi boiler, so does my heating and instant water nothing extra such as a water tank

Hi Guys I've moved into a new home which has the above boiler installed, I noticed the boiler was firing up a lot with the fan running constantly, it was also consuming about 150-200w of electricity...all of this was happening when there was no heating on or hot water being run. So I had a...

Hi Guys Recently my boiler failed with a faulty gas valve which a Worcester engineer replaced. The boiler is now working but it’s producing alot of steam out of the extractor piping outside the house which is setting off my external light and security camera..it never used to produce this much...

Great thanks

Just to let you guys know it was the gas valve which had failed, all back up and working like a trooper Thanks for everyone help

thanks ollski With my voltmeter what resistance am I looking at across the gas valve solenoid ?

Is there anyway I can test the flame sensor ? I have a voltmeter

thanks I can here the electrodes clicking multiple times as the boiler tries to fire up...would I still hear the clicking if the electrodes were faulty ?

Thanks for reply no I haven't played with any of the valves...we went away for two weeks and have come back to this ...house has been empty so no fiddling...only odd thing was the gas hob didn't fire up straightaway when we got home and then cut out during my cooking but the gas hob fired back...

That’s what I mean though wouldn’t it be unlikely that all of a sudden I have a sticking bearing flap at exactly the same time as the boiler running low on water pressure ..that’s why I’m thinking it’s the pump.. Could the water pressure running low have caused any damage ?
