Hi all, as I suppose most people do I am joining the forums because I have an issue I hope someone can shed light on.
The boiler I have is about 4 years old, works fine (Apart from this issue) and is efficient, Ch1 is central heating, Ch2 is hot water (Tanked).
If I try to start just Ch1, the pump starts, ignition is attempted and fails with the boiler eventually locking out. I can start Ch2 with no problems, now here is the thing:-
If I start Ch2, then set Ch1 to ON, I can then turn off Ch2 and the boiler will happily run the central heating, cycling once set temperature is reached quite happily.
I am thinking this has to be a control board fault in some way (I have BG Homecare) but they seem to duck when I mention this problem. Am I on the right track? and if so then I suspect it's a costly repair which is why they are dodging and will press them to fix it properly.
As I said I can work around this fault but would rather not have to with Winter on the way.
Any suggestions are welcome, thank you.
