I am guessing the amber light is the flame light?
If so then the immediate expectation is that there is a combustion related aspect which will not support operating at the DHW parameters,
These problems should be dealt with be a competent CORGI registered person.
However the problem might actually be that the diverter valve is failing and the microswitch is not remaining made after the initial operation. If so then that will mean the the diverter needs to be replaced or repaired.
