Hi - I have a gas fired Potterton Flamingo II boiler running my GCH and hot water.
The boiler is programmed via a Siemens control panel (pic attached). It's programmed to come on at 5am to 7am to run the heating and hot water.
This morning I noticed at 7am that the rads were cooler than they should have been - the boiler had come on at 5am and then failed after a period of time.
The pilot light is on. I have tried turning the boiler off and re-lighting the pilot light. I have reset the Siemens control panel, but nothing has worked. When I try to advance the heating/hot water on the panel, the markers on the LCD move to ON, but the red light indicating that the boiler has powered up do not come on.
I did have an engineer over last week plumbing the hot water to run off the boiler (before that the boiler only powered the heating).
Does anyone have any idea as to what might have made the boiler die half way through it's cycle this morning? Could the gas control valve perhaps have failed?
Many thanks
