Hi all.
I wonder if anyone can offer some help in diagnosing a problem with my boiler? It’s a Baxi Solo 3 PF and keeps blowing the 3A supply fuse when a call for heat is made. Initially I thought it might be a problem with the wiring, pump or valves. However, I’ve tested the pump and that appears to work ok and I’ve now tried the boiler without the programmer and just the pump, permanent and (temporary) switched live. The boiler now powers up and runs the pump but doesn’t fire or run the fan and blows the fuse when the thermostat knob is turned beyond about 1/3 travel. The potentiometer tests ok on a meter when disconnected.
Any help appreciated.
Many thanks, Paul
