Looking for a little help here please I'm not very DIY, well.. I'll give it a go, but this is my first house so not got much practice so far!
It's a 2001 build, so not too old, has a Boilermate and a standard boiler. All of the radiators work, except the two heated towel rails in the bathroom and the en-suite.
I had thought the little white twisty knobs underneath weren't open but when turned they didn't seem to do much, pulled them off and they're pretty loose inside, so I suspected they weren't actually turning the valves at all.
Got some pliers on them and managed to open the left side until it turned freely, but just cannot turn the right side. Is this correct or could it be stuck shut? (Not sure why but maybe the previous owner wanted them off)
Few pictures to show what I'm talking about;
Managed to undo this one reasonably easy, and turns freely now.
This side is stuck shut. I've undone the nut behind it and this comes off freely but doesn't make any difference.
I've tried bleeding it from this but a little air came out and then water so I assumed this is bled enough?
Thanks very much.
