I have a Worcester Danesmoor 20/25 boiler that is pretty old with a separate control unit/timer that controls both central heating and hot water.
Over the last few months I noticed that the CH would only work if I also lit up the Hot Water light as well.
Today I tried to put the CH on (by manually advancing both the CH & HW to 24hrs) and noticed that for 3 hours I could not get the CH to work. It started to warm the rads but then stopped (no lockout light).
I finally figured out that it was not working as the boiler did not need to heat up any hot water (i.e. the HW tank was full and to temperature). When I upped the HW tank thermostat by a few degrees the boiler fired up and now I am lovely and warm again!!!
Anyone know or have any ideas what might be wrong?
Thanks,
Mark
