Thank you for all your advice, you've been amazing! Now I know that every thing is wired correctly, I'll shorten some of the wires and rewire it, so the cable is tucked inside.

I've just changed that now, thank you. They certainly dont leave any room! I see on your pic, the cable has been fed through the back of the heat link. I'm unable to do that (I dont think) as all the cables from the wiring centre are external and I assume those are internal?

Thank you! I'll isolate the power for tonight and rewire it properly tomorrow. Thanks again for the help, you've saved me a small fortune!!!

I forgot you said to link the 2 terminal where I removed the wires, I did that and it's all fully functional! I can not thank you enough for all your help!!! You're an absolute star!!!

Can I just check if this is correct before I switch my electric back on? Im not wiring the Nest thermostat to the existing thermostat, it will be freestanding and plugged into the mains. I have run 2 small wires. One from L to 2 and the other from L to 5. Where I have removed L1 and LX from the...

Thank you so much. From the posts you've added, I'll check the wiring on the programmer and if its wired correctly, I'll give it a go myself. As the only thing that's putting me off is, disconnecting the thermostat and isolating it. Or am I right in thinking I can just wire the Nedt thermostat...

Thank you both for your help! It's all sounding far too complicated now, I think I'll just call an electrician!!!

Oh, so I'm actually replacing the Drayton programmer with the Nest heat link?

Thank you so much. Thr thermostat will be freestanding and will be plugged in. No, it isnt a combi boiler, that's why I went for the 3rd generation, as it can do heating and hot water separately, or so I'm lead to believe!

Sorry to jump on this thread but I'm new to the forum and cant work out how to post and running out of patience! I bought Nest 3rd Generation as I read that they were easier to self install and compatible with my heating....I've fallen at the first hurdle and need help! Where do I connect L1 and...
