    Diabolical VRT340F Vaillant timer - how to replace it?

    So if I mounted the Honeywell receiver on the wall beside the boiler, say, I would need to (a) remove the 340 receiver (b) change something on the PCB of the receiver (c) remove the boiler front panel and wire the new unit into the boiler (d) replace the panel and (e) replace the 340 receiver?

    Diabolical VRT340F Vaillant timer - how to replace it?

    Not sure what those numbers (340, 360) you quote refer to. I have the manuals for the 837e boiler, which have wiring diagrams. I presume the Honeywell 927 timer unit comes with wiring diagrams. If installation is as easy as you suggest I will happily give it a go. I installed the...

    Diabolical VRT340F Vaillant timer - how to replace it?

    I have searched the forums here and found the wireless timer/thermostat I have, the Vaillant vrt340f (typo corrected), described as 'diabolical'. I could not agree more. I build and program computers and I have never come across a device so infuriatingly hard to use. My heating comes on...
