Yes you did read that right the boiler is failing to lock-out.
The problem started today. Boiler has run fine all winter.
Today although the boiler motor was turning and fan was blowing air through the flue there was no heat. I switched it off and switched it on again. Burner motor running. I went outside and could feel air but no warmth comming from flue. I went back in and waited for it to lock out but it didnt. After 10 minutes I got worried and turned it off. I thought it was supposed to shut down if the photocell doesnt see a flame. It is not lighting as there is no whooshing noise that it makes when it lights and of course there is also no warmth.
I would really be glad of any help you can offer.
Many, many thanks.
