For the last 6 years this has worked "perfectly" (new fitted by pr corgi fitter) new Danfoss 15-50 pump fitted 2 years ago - still worked perfectly.
Landis & Staefa RWB9 controller. When pressing the + 1 hour for CH both CH & HW indicators would come on and boiler fire up. When pressing + 1 hour for HW only the HW indicator wold come on - no problems. Fully pumped system with 2 x electric "zone" valves (no divertor valve).
Last Friday came home and rads were cool (Dec 17 2010) so went to press + 1 hour for CH/HW and the light were alredy on but boiler off. Turned up boiler thermostat (potentiometer) - NOTHING but fan still running. Switched all off at controller, waited 10 minutes, pressed + 1 hour for CH and both CH & HW light came on. Boiler silent for 1 min as usual then fan started then green pilot/mainburner light flashed on boiler about 3 or 4 times then stayed on and boiler lit. Went out after 10 minutes but boiler fan kept running - it usually stops completly before reignighting when temperature lowers.
Pressed RESET on controller and reset day, time then programs and copied to sat & sunday.
Boiler still running intermittently but 19/20 mins at a time but strange thing is that when pressing CH + 1 hour only the CH light comes on and the Boiler is DEAD but activating the HW + 1 hour the Boiler springs into life (may or may not continue running as above). I now have to press BOTH the HW + 1 hour AND the CH + 1 hour to get the system running as it did before I reset the programmer but...... I still have the 10/20 minute or intermittent ignition problem and the fan runs what seems continuously.
Help - it's Christmas and dammed cold. Any ideas would be appreciated as can't get anybody to even look at it until new year although one guy did come in on tuesday and said "if it ain't broke can't fix it - it seemed to be Ok at that time.....
