Been looking at this ideal isar combi. It's got hot water but no heating. The stat and receiver are communicating with each other. So I thought it might be the diverter valve. But the boiler does fire up sometimes but for only a brief time. Is this the pcb or a circulation issue. The pump works, it has a magna flow (brass bottle shaped) could that be blocked.

Do you mean a MagnaClean inline magnetic filter?

Have you cleaned it out? I wouldn't think this would completely block the CH circuit but stranger things have happened I suppose.

No it's a dirtmag/altecnic. Haven't cleaned it out.

You're a helpful bunch aren't you :)
Think it's either the pcb, or a circulation issue. Think the pump works ok I'll check again when I'm back and maybe give it a mains flush. When calling for heat there's no life at all, the reset button does nothing.
Turning off at the wall then on again, you can hear it go to start, you can hear click click click then nothing again.
Ill phone Ideal when there.
