    Baxi Megaflo Boiler - Sudden pressure rise then dreaded E168

    We have a Baxi boiler that is failing every day or so, going straight into error code e168. See video below... The problem is baffling our local British Gas engineers who have replaced parts (pump, 3-way switch for water, PCB twice) and say the problem is now most likely caused by system...

    Programs and Zone Set Up - Accenta 8 Mini

    OK answered my own question even though manual is written by a very illogical mind or by someone trying to work up some black magic. The program I used works perfectly and should help many others as the logic and wording seems to fool many people who aren't in the know.

    Programs and Zone Set Up - Accenta 8 Mini

    I have the manuals and user card for this alarm and just want to check with someone that I'm using the correct logic when setting a night time program used when everyone going to bed and no one coming in late via front door. Zones Front door with switch = zone 1 Hall PIR = zone 2 Upstairs...

    Accenta 8 Mini alarm system - power failure & dead rkp

    So, to get this back on track after the spat...... I have the manuals and user card. I've tried the programming procedure but it doesn't mention anywhere about omitting a zone, in that I assume that an unselected zone means its omitted by default. Trouble is my upstairs zone (6) omitted and...

    Accenta 8 Mini alarm system - power failure & dead rkp

    I don't know what you're all arguing over really and I certainly don't want to take sides. The advice from each and everyone of you has been much more than I expected and I thank you all for taking the time to help me out. So to summarise where I am with this panel - I see the easiest and...

    Accenta 8 Mini alarm system - power failure & dead rkp

    I believe its time for a new new panel :| Seems that I could pick one up for £40 with keypad (Accenta Mini G4). Is this the way to go due to commonality reasons of wiring etc. or should I go for something else?

    Accenta 8 Mini alarm system - power failure & dead rkp

    I can report as follows... When measured with a multimeter the following readings were taken without the battery connected but with the panel powered from the mains. Note: The panel is protected by a 3 amp fuse but did not blow on panel failure. 1. Voltage from transformer onto PCB = 17.5 V...

    Accenta 8 Mini alarm system - power failure & dead rkp

    Thanks for your input here its much appreciated. I have a couple of questions as just about to disarm external sounder.. 1. When I cleared the NVM and set to default conditions the RKP is still dead, this doesn't make sense does it, should it not be working according to your power down power...
