If you can you need to check that the pump is running. A noise from it does not mean that it is rotating. See FAQ's on checking pumps and be careful to protect yourself and the boiler electrics from damage. If in doubt get a pro in to fix it.

hi have checked pump is running fine ,i think its something to do with the hot water ,because i had the heating on last knght but turned the hot water down to its minimum ,made a noise for a while but then stopped ,but agian when it got to hot it locked out
 
Sounds as if the DHW demand switch is jamming!

Although that would not normally cause a problem on CH if the diverter valve is moving quickly and the pump is running and you have no dripping taps.
