I'm trying to understand a problem with my Ferroli Falcon. People have been kind enough to offer their opinion to previous descriptions of it but the following paragraph from the manual makes me wonder whether an air leak could be the root as the symptoms seem to be a bit worse on colder days...

Ferroli Falcon shut-off problem Thanks to collegeboy and slug for your replies today. I'm going to have a go at describing the problem more clearly: When there is demand for heating or hot water the 'Burner indicator on' light goes on and off every few seconds instead of staying on...

Thanks slugbaby, I couldn't find my boiler (FER Falcon, 0007L60397) on the Ferroli website. Perhaps they don't make them anymore. Anyway, I've sent them an email requesting a manual. Thanks again

Thanks again collegeboy. I can use a multimeter ok, but I'm not a boiler technician so wouldn't be able to identify the components without the aid of a diagram. Can you recommend any resourses. Where can I get/download a manual for this boiler? Thanks for all your help

Actually collegeboy on recollection it has been known to shut down when heating hot water for a long while, say when running a bath. But I never run a bath now because with it not working properly you can't get a decent bath temperature. (Fortunately I have an electric shower) Ta

Thanks collegeboy. If it's starting heating from cold it might run for about 10 minutes before shutting down. If I reset it soon after shutdown then it will go again for about another 5 minutes before shutting down. Then you're just resetting every 5 mins. Up until recently it might require...

Hello can anyone help? My Falcon FER boiler, 0007L60397, has developed the following fault. The two main symptoms are that 1, when in central heating mode the 'Burner on indicator' keeps turning off and the 'Boiler shut down warning' light comes on meaning I have to constantly reset the...
