Biasi 24s not igniting!!!!!

[ukgraydog]

Hi can somebody please help?
My Biasi 24s combi refuses to ignite, corgi man replaced gas valve as he thought the solenoid had gone, but still not working and bank account £186 lighter. Everything else seems to be correct just no gas getting through gas valve?
Any help would be appreciated.
This my first post here so would love to strike gold on first attempt.

........and bank account £186 lighter.

Why did you pay him? like getting mugged?....you are just supporting the cowboys.

Have you reset the overheat stat on the front panel under the black screwed cap?

Its easy to measure the resistance of the gas valve solenoid to see if its failed.

Ask for your money back and get a competent boiler engineer!

Hi all thanks for replying.
It seems original diagnosis was correct! I ended up calling Biasi and they put me in touch with one of there accredited fitters. He came out and had a look and realised that original gas man in his haste to finish job had not screwed the gas valve mount back onto the boiler so that it sat on "the ****", this meant that the electrical box attached to the front of valve could not make circuit. All it needed was two screws putting in.

Thanks anyway for the help!
