I have the dreaded L-F fault on my Ideal Istor boiler. I have unblocked the condense s trap that did have quite a bit of crap inside and put all back together. The fault still remains. I have read the service manual which said to check the voltage at the gas valve which should be between 150 - 200vDC. The first time I checked I had 120v AC. I checked again a few days later and now it fluctuates all over the place from 90v - 140v whether my tester is set to AC or DC.
For those out there who have more knowledge on these boilers, would it be safe to say that I need a new PCB and how much are they?
I have also noticed some sticky brown stuff that looks like it may have come out of the honeywell unit.
I noticed someone mentioned that when you unblock the s trap you should check for a blockage where it drains away. Where does it drain away? - I can only just reach the pipe to disconnect and reconnect it let alone see where it goes.
