    Glow Worm - no-one can fix...

    Hi matt1e Firstly in response to your questions: 1. I get light 1 lit, light 2 lit, and then it becomes interesting. The fan starts up, ignition lights the pilot, light 3 comes on, then the gas supply is immediately shut down and light 3 goes off. This on/off of light 3 takes 2 or 3...

    Glow Worm - no-one can fix...

    Thanks for your (fast!!) responses, these have been very useful. To update you all - I got the consumer unit totally rewired and the entire house fully tested subsequent to the abomination performed by the original guy. Now I know the electrics are fully in order. I was very interested to...

    Glow Worm - no-one can fix...

    Here's a problem that has left a number of people stumped. I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who has experienced this at all. I have a Glow Worm Ultimate FF 50 boiler which was already a few years old when I moved in 6 years ago - I'm guessing it's 12-15 years old. It's a cylinder system...
