Thank you MikeCip for our excellent responses. Any comment on lat question would be gratefully received.

Does anybody know if the 30Si compact use the same jig as the old 30Si model?

Thank you very much. Is this something I should ask Worcester to fix for the fixed fee. I've heard for £250 they will fix it ?

Hi Mike, Thank you for your time and reply. The Si is possibly 5-8 yrs old. It's a mark 3. It needs s new heat exchanger, pressure gauge and pump lead. I'm not convinced it's going to be reliable hence I'm thinking to replace the front (and keep the jig if possible). Hot water is intermittent...

Hi All, Having a nightmare with fitting a second hand boiler (never again)! The heating engineer has fitted the 30Si jig & boiler. Numerous concerns with the boiler and so was wondering if there's another worcester boiler that uses the same jig as the 30SI that I could drop on to minimise the...

FIXED thanks to the expert help provided on this site and more specifically by the members who replied to my request for help. I can't thank you enough, in particular gordongas, agile (Tony), and namsag! I bought a £2.19 microswitch and soldered it on this evening. Working perfect since...

Tony, congratulations on 1500 thank you's! I've found this microswitch, do you have an opinion as to whether it's OK? http://www.maplin.co.uk/miniature-microswitch-34835 Many thanks, Anya x

The microswitch looks easy to fit if it is that. It's a solder connection and it looks like I can get it from maplins for less than £2! If it is that of course! Just waiting on your expert judgement so I can sort it tomorrow!

Thank you. As it's the grey wire going into the microswitch, am I correct that it's the microswitch? The pump continues to run even when I push the actual microswitch on and off.

Hi Gordongas, Namsag, Having followed your advice, I think I'm very close! I removed each GREY wire in turn (CH & HW turned OFF at timer but pump was still running). The pump stopped when the Danfoss MV grey wire was disconnected (and kept running when Honeywell grey wire was taken out). Am...

Thank you. Apologies for being a pain but could I confirm my understanding of the "wiring centre". Do you mean the wiring at the back of the timer or in the valve itself? Also, I've just checked the pump. It doesn't stop running unless I turn off at the isolator switch. I just wondered...

Thanks again. I've opened the valves to find the orange wires. They're both soldered on which I'll try and disconnect. I could do with some clarification on how exactly diagnose which microswitch is faulty. I understand as below: 1. Disconnect one orange wire. 2. Switch power on and switch...

Dear all, thank you so much for your advice. In ref to the questions, I can clarify the following: 1. Theboiler is located in the utility room. I don't believe it has a frost stat but I'm happy to check if someone could point me' in the right direction. 2. I opened up each valve and...

Hi, I'm pretty sure it hasn't got a frost stat but just to be sure, pls could you advise how I can confirm this please. Many thanks, A damsel in distress!

Thank you so much for your reply. I have 2 valves if I understand your question correctly. - Danfoss type HPA2 - Honeywell motorised valve V4043H1056 Is there a way in which I can check whether the switch has actually stuck and if yes, do I need to replace the valve or can I fix the switch...

Dear EXPERTS, After a successful outcome previously, I've come back after several years needing some more help! I hope the below information is sufficient, but please ask if I've missed anything. PROBLEM My Ideal FF380 boiler fires intermittently (every 10 mins for about 2 mins at a time)...

Hi, I have exactly the same problem as you describe and I was wondering what fixed it for you in the end. Could you kindly spare me a bit of your time to let me know pls. Many thanks :-)

Thanks for quick reply. Will check and come back to you. Will take some work in the loft though... Appreciate your advice. Thank you.

Dear Experts, I'm in need of some help. One side of my upstairs lights (3 lights +1 bathroom vent out of total 8 upstairs lights and 2 vents) have stopped working (sockets work ok). Have checked the following and remain at a loss to understand what might be wrong. CHECKED 1. Light...

Thanks ALL for your kind help and advice. Will isolate elec supply and check all connections OK. If any ongoing problems, will be back in touch appealing for help. Thanks very much. Anya
