Hello,
My 240RSF has been misbehaving for the past two days. DHW starts hot, then goes rather lukewarm. Sometimes it gets hot again, sometimes not. I did notice the rads getting slightly warm too while the taps were running (as opposed to afterwards because of the pump overrun).
I presume the diverter valve's playing up. Am I right? It had a new synchron motor about 15 years ago, but apart from that it's still the original, 20-year old one.
It's P/N 87161424210, like this one: http://www.spareboilerparts.co.uk/cgi-bin/trolleyed_public.cgi?action=showprod_WOR87161424210
Should I just change it, or can it be repaired (like the ones in the newer 24cdi etc.)?
I know my boiler's living in borrowed time, but it's reliable (a bit like Trigger's broom!) and I'd like to stick with it until parts are NLA or it breaks down too often.
Cheers,
Chris.
