Sorry for the crap explainin guys, but I've only owned a house for a few month, and am really no genius at this kinda thing. I fully opened the tap under my kitchen sink where the water is fed to my house, as it was only opened a little bit, because the water pressure was pants. The...

Would low pressure cause any issues as I've just noticed my inlet tap wasn't hardly open! So now it's at 3/4 position instead of 1/4 :)

Right after some tinkering: took that Thermostat off cylinder and fixed it so it dosn't just spin, now its set at max/80. Turned the dial on the boiler up to 5, then put CH on and all the radiators came on, hot at first but after a while they went to warm, still warm now. However downstairs are...

Yer the cylinder does get hot but rads are still cold. Got the HW to 'ON' and the CH to 'ON' made sure the thermo stat was above threshold, then manually switched the 3 way valve. Been an hour and no rads are warm :( Gonna take the Cylinder thermostat to bits n have a look. NB. My water...

I opened the 3 way valve but nothing! :(

After leavin the heating on only one radiator nearest the airing cupboard went warm, not hot just warm, no other radiators came on. It's like it came on for a small bit then went off??

Lol! :D Yer, if it does work then how much would it be to put right :P Downstairs dosn't appear to be heating :(

Thanks for all your help dude, been a legend! Just hope the rads heat up now, can hear like floorboards creekin so hopefully thats the pipes heatin. Plus boiler keeps clickin. :)

Right put the hot water on, then went to airin cupboard and pushed the lever on the bottom of the 3 way valve to fully the other direction. Pump could be heard running, and I could hear water running from what sounded like the loft? Will see if the radiators get warm :)

Thanks guys, will look for this handle now! :) Will keep you updated!

Thanks for the help all. Just put the CH to ON, went to the Thermostat and made sure it clicked, which it did then went to airin cupboard and heard nothin. Plus never heard boiler kick in, don't know if it should? I still have hot water when I need it, it's just central heating. V4073A...

Here's them wires: Will try thumpin the pump n re-settin the boiler if I find the reset thingy? :P

Here's some spec... Potterton Prima Potterton PRT 100 Black box set at 2 ? This says Honeywell. Before it packed in none of the downstairs radiators appeared to work, they were all cold but upstairs were warm, that was a few week ago, then tried it again yesterday but nothing...

Big help, thanks alot, will go and look at names on Boiler etc :) Does the Hot Water have to be on at the same time as the central heating?

Yer the hot water is boiled in a boiler in the kitchen. Heating was left on all day with the stat at max but still nothing!

...what this is in my loft... Know the hot water tank is behind that but this is cold... plus the pipe in my airing cupboard that comes from this tank leads to some 'boxes'. This pic with the closest pipe to the left comes from the tank: I ask this as my central heating packed in...
