Well, it's been a while since I last posted on here.
This boiler is just so damn reliable really and it may need fixing again.
This is a common problem but I wonder if I can post enough detail here to get a one shot answer. I am almost fullly capable with a multimeter and I have the service manual.
However, I'm just wondering if I can avoid even taking the cover off etc.
The boiler was fully working in every aspect until one day it stopped delivering hot water. Listening to the boiler going when the thermostat is lit, it goes through a few noises, then finally a flame lit and central heating working.
If you turn on a hot water tap at this time, you will get hot water.
As soon as the boiler is turned off, the residual, heated water will go from hot to warm to cold.
Apart from that, everything else works.
So, obviously we have water flowing, we have gas igniting, we have water pumping, we have fan running and the flues/vents seem to be satisfactory according to the fact that the boiler is boiling.
In octoboer 2010 this boiler was revamped as detailed below from my 2010 final comment.
The system did not have any fluid replacements or maintenance except above.
