Central Heating Turning Off Automatically AAARRGGGGGHHHHH

[shakeeb786]

could be pcb, bad electrical connection, flow switch, diverter to name but a few.
time for an RGI, will be cheaper than changing your boiler part for part.

also the fan and pump are both running constantly when central heating is turned on

for how long?
flame or no flame?

the flame runs and i can hear the pump, im not sure if the fan is running continously
but the flame comes on, heats the water to the specified temperature set( dosnt affect what this is)
then the flame goes out to just pilot, the pump carries on running
and the central heating stay on till the water goes cold
the pump is running properly
the problem i think is a sensor that is supposed to switch the boiler back on when the water becomes cold
but it dosnt come back on

what is the air pressure switches job? and also the flow switch's job?and what is an RGI
if you mean corgi registered enginner, i have had one out he says it could be the air pressure switch

 

[hav it]

did he test it?? the flow switch, is what it is. It picks up the flow of water.

nothing has been tested
what could the problem be?[/quote]
