Halstead Heat 60 - Lockout & Burner On lights both flashing

[ianmcd]

angie they are not bad boilers , old yes but there are worse going around, if you remove that cover , it is only 1 screw and behind the cover you will see 3 more leds what are they showing ?

2 red LEDs lit near the bottom of the circuit board (other than the Lock out' flashing light.
It fired up today of its own accord but stopped again after 35 mins

 

[ianmcd]

The left LED means boiler lockout through flame failure, the right LED means faulty thermistor or PCB, was that replacement a brand new one ? or from Ebay ?

 

[AngieCoop]

It was from WarmSafe plumbing and heating £180

 

[ianmcd]

what was the origional problem before you changed the pcb ?

 

[AngieCoop]

It's in the original post. Just no activity but the red lock out and green burner lights flashing.

I'm starting to lose faith in engineers tbh, get told something different everytime

 

[ianmcd]

I would try the primary thermistor they are not expensive, not too many will have experience of your boiler , they never really took off

You seem to be clued up, when are you free?

I'm getting into a sticky spot now, going into overdraft and can't afford a grand towards a deposit on a new boiler.
Will have to stick to wrapping up and boiling pans for a bit longer.

Thanks for the help everyone
