slight problem i had - seems strange to me:
no heating came on this morning. power was on at programmer and heating selected. heating cal terminal live, motorised vave white wire live, but no power (oltage) to the orange wire ... so i thought it has to be the motor inside the actuator head.
i tried hot water only, and that came on - but the manual lever had no resistance so i thought the heating will warm up now as the valve is open.
anyway, i turned both off, and took off the actuator cover, and just touched the synchron motor a few times, nothing hard or aggressive. then the heating came on. On top of this, when HW only slelected, the lever has resistance again!!
do i have 2 problems in 1 - was the motor just stuck? all is fine now, but will this problem arise again and again? is a new actuator or motor required to be on the safe side (as it is winter now... almost)
the thing that puzzled me, was having 2 problems together, ie the motor not moving and putting power to the orange wire when heating was required, and when hot water only was selected, the manual lever was loose. are the 2 connected or different problems?
thanks for reading... look forward to your help and suggestions.
