Two nights ago our Puma 80e boiler stopped producing CH but still produced HW. Last night a plumber arrived and suggested that the modulator circuit board was faulty. When he replaced the cover and switched it on, the boiler stopped working completely. I have examined the circuit board and there is a burnt out solder joint on the top left hand side.
The board has already been replaced before. Is it worth repairing again? The initial problem suggested the diverter valve had gone (this has already been replaced).
The plumber has suggested we replace the boiler completely (circa £1800). Is this reasonable. I can get a staff discount from Grahams or Jewsons (cost+5%) on boilers.Should I try and source one myself or get the plumber to find one?
