Have only ever fitted one on a 70FF, and it was fine, but the appliance was never right until I replaced the single electrode with a dual electrode type.
Perhaps a silly question, but have you following the fault-finding chart? And you say that both LEDs are flashing, but at what rate? Different rates mean different things - according to the servicing instructions there's only one permutation where they're flashing at the same rate, which means "Phase Error (Blocking)". **** knows what that means, but GW should be able to tell you...

The problem is there is no fault finding chart for the new pcb as it has different lights than the old one and I did put on the new electrode aswell. I rang GW at 4.55 last night and sat on hold until the line just cut off at 5.30 exactly.....god I hate glow-worms but I'll try again this morning with another board.
First of all make sure the jumper is in right position then check earth is tight & on right connection (i have put earth on wrong place myself but pcb knows it & usually flashes both neons)

Two slow flashes indicate polarity wrong check its wired in correctly permanent, live switch live, neutral, and earth and check pump over-run is wired.Did you have orange lights before if so i dont know if that was phase sensitive.The new board there are two types pijnenburg or the new rickett board the difference is the latest will have a turquoise spark unit on it they are supposed to be better not needing a capacitor fitted.I have had shed loads of problems with these boilers they are very tempremental as mentioned before the electrode has changed to a twin also make sure the ignition rate is correct
guess what they had a sparky in the other day and no heating since. Another one of those 5 o'clock jobs you take for granted and come back to bite you on the arse.....good call gg.DIYnot Local
