    vaillant TURBOmax VUW shuts down

    I just called an engineer. He initially thought it was the fan but later on he discovered it was the gas valve. He said the part would cost anywhere between 80 or 180 pounds. He said if it was him he would replace the whole boiler as it's more than 10 years old. Which is the cheapest...

    vaillant TURBOmax VUW shuts down

    The water pressure is where it should be. All the lights seem to come on in the right sequence but all of the sudden it shuts down and trips the switch. All this takes about 1 or 2 seconds. I switched the boiler for few hours but that didn't make a difference.
