PLEASE HELP! My little boy and I are freezing to death and it's nearly X-mas - CH failed today, 18h00 22nd December. ((
Getting HW fine, but CH not working. No warning lights on boiler, but temp indicated correctly. Pressure within limits. CH light never comes on though, even if setting put at max - HW light illuminates correctly.
Have tried resetting unit, to no avail. Have noticed though that pump (and maybe fan) seem to be running continuously - it does this even if you select just hot water, with temp setting at absolute minimum.
Have tried disconnecting timer, but makes no difference. Have bypassed safety thermostat, but no change. Have tried running hot water, as per other posts, to see if rads kicked in, but again no difference.
Currently suspecting PCB as they seem common failure point, but would appreciate advice - don't want to spend £100 unnecessarily.
System is actually quite new, but was installed by previous owners of property and hence don't know warranty situation.
If it is the PCB, does anybody know where I can get one in Ipswich. I know they're available on-line, but I don't want to wait until the New Year to receive one. Don't mind travelling a reasonable distance!
Many thanks in anticipation of your kind help and a happy X-mas to all.
