My central heating has two, 2 port valves; one for the HW and one for the CH itself. The powerhead on the HW 2 port valve is a Honeywell 40003916 that failed and on which I have fitted a replacement.
The problem I now have is that the boiler only fires if the CH or CH and HW both demand heating. If the HW alone demands heating the powerhead operates (lever moves to full deflection) and the pump runs but the boiler doesn't fire. If I then demand CH with HW already demanded the boiler still doesn't fire. If I now switch off both HW and CH before then demanding CH only, the boiler fires. If I now demand HW with the CH already running, I get HW.
Clearly I have run one or more wires incorrectly on the HW powerhead but I cannot fathom how.
Guidance will be very much appreciated, thank you.
