Gasguru, thank you for taking the time to reply. So it looks like it should be able to cope with the 5 wired pump and has the appropriate circuitry, meaning the pump supplied is fine. That clears that up say least. Now I'll have to figure out a way forward as to why it's not firing up...

And I take on board what you're saying and appreciate the concern. By no way am I saying I know as well as anybody or that my experience elsewhere means I am completely competent. But there are always mitigating circumstances that mean sometimes I just have to take it on. It's always a learning...

Thank you for the replies. Let's clear up the first point, yes I am a competent person, renovated my whole house from plumbing to electrics (checked and certified by an electrician thereafter), to tiling, to flooring, to plastering and everything in between as well as car mechanics, rebuilding...

Hi guys, my first post here, but I won't lie, I've used this place as a reference point so many times it's been invaluable, so I thought I'd sign up and ask a question I have. I will give as much info as possible so forgive the long read... Last week the pump on my mom's boiler went, as per...
