Only just found this site so first post here.
The boiler is an old vaillant combi that’s been here since we bought the house and to be honest other than a new fan and controller a few years back it’s never given us any issues.
The problem we have now is that the flame comes on for about 30 seconds and then cuts out for about 90 seconds when you’ve got the hot water running and a similar thing with the central heating except it’s off for about three minutes.
When it’s running the water get warm and the radiators start to heat but obviously don’t stay that way
As far as I can tell the fan is running as is the pump and certainly it’s lighting ok when it tries (except maybe the first attempt.)
any advice would be appreciated.
Many thanks,
Mark
