I have a combi gas bolier (worcester 24cdi) which keeps cutting out when supplying hot water or heating.
It runs for about a minute or so then there is a slight clunk and it cuts out. I have to reset it using the little red button.
I repeat that about eight times. Then it runs fine.....
Water presssure is fine at 1.5 bar and it occurs for both hot water and heating.
I figure it must be temperature related as once its been running a while its fine and it only happens in winter, never in summer. And if I leave the heating on all night in winter it works without fault.
It has started to get worse though and unless the room temp is high when the weather is very good it is happenning more and more...
A friend a work who knows a bit about these things said it sounds like the solenoid could be getting tight.
I want to have a vague idea b4 I get in an engineer who I wont trust not to fleece me.
I assume as Im not corgi registered I cant 'have a go myself'
Any thoughts welcome.
