I have a problem with my boiler in that when it is set to hot water the central heating is coming on with it.....ive looked around and found that some people suspect the flow diverter valve....i can see this valve and it has a few pipes running into it and wondered if its something i could fix myself?

Depends how good at DIY you are, but theoretically yes you could do it yourself. Not worth trying to fix the valve though, you'll need a new one. Advance warning - the price of Halstead spares will make your eyes water!
Sounds much more like the diverter to me. Actually not as expensive as I expected http://www.tradeboilerparts.co.uk/h...alve-ace-finest-wickes-combi-models-716-p.asp

Thanks.....i had a look at it earlier. When i turned it to hot water it was fine for around 5 minutes then without anyone turning on the hot taps the switch clicked on the central heating yet the main switch was still on hot water......could it be the switch at fault or does this sound like a symptom of a faulty valve you mentioned earlier
