You've got all the chronology of events mixed up but when you use so many expletives in so few sentences it is hardly surprising.
I acknowledge gas works are dangerous and that I am aware that this boiler is dangerous. That stems from the fact that many years ago I came to this forum for advice and had already removed the case at the time. People naturally made me aware of the potential dangers and of the issues with this particular boiler so that is historic.
I then say, "I am simply looking to repair it without deliving too deep.". That means not touching the case if you are unable to work this out.
I had no idea that swapping out a control board could even be classed as gas work as it is not touching the gas but thinking logically it controls ignition so I can see, NOW, that it would perhaps be a risky thing to do if you had absolutely no inkling how to swap the thing over.
Are you aware the problem is already sorted? It simply need the relay contacts cleaning. I am sure you are going to argue that that too is gas work. It's a simple as changing a fuse. The relay can only go in one way so is foolproof.
Had it been the electrode I would have had to call an RGI out but the crux of the matter was not paying over the odds if it was something simple.
Also, at what point have I said it is anyone's fault that I am in the situation I am in.
kick you in the teeth how the fook did i do that ???????
Too difficult to work out for you? Allow me to explain. "and i don't think you would get a RGI to look at it". Like I said before, you don't even know me yet you think you know how I act in any given situation.
Funny how you flip at the slightest questioning of your thread but I guess that's professionalism, right?
