Vokera Linea 28, Display not lit, SOLUTION Main PCB replaced

[ton2010]

My previously reliable Linea 28 is not igniting after being turned off the night before.

On turning on the next morning the display did not light up but the pump and fan were working with relays clicking.

I have available new PCb's but do not want them "burnt" on a hasty swap.

The manual details the sequence and some twenty electronic tests available, which area should I "request" investigation of prior to swapping PCB's.

My previous gas engineer has retired so I am using a new local business and do not know what their proceedure may be.

Thanks

Their procedure should be to identify the problem and repair it.

I doubt they will welcome you telling them what to do. Many are quite touchy and could pack up their tools and walk out!

You say the pump is running but I take it the boiler is not working.

Agile, Thanks for your response, and I thought I had chosen my words with care!

Anyway engineer provided excellent service, quickly located overheating processor on main board and checked possible sources before replacing main PCB.

We really need to report positive results here and have more faith in our tradesmen (except at MOT time !)

I am glad you left him to do his job!

You might be able to mention their name if you are pleased with their service although websites are sometimes a little sensitive about that.

I had to replace a main PCB on a Linea this week!
