Got a problem (or two!) on the Wickes 2000. Any help would be very much appreciated. Here goes...
Fan packed up and was replaced, all OK for a week or so.
Then we couldn't get any hot water but CH worked fine. Engineer came out and initially said it was the diverter and demonstrated the plunger pressing the micro switches which in turn fired the boiler, but no hot water came through. He then decided it was the PCB ('driver board'?). He tried a new one and also changed one of the micro switches but still no joy.
He came back a few days later and changed the diaphragm in the diverter and after fiddling about for a while we also lost the heating!! Cheers! He then said it was the ignition board. He tried a new one and guess what? Nothing! No heating, no hot water.
Now all that happens when you turn the heating on or run the hot water is you get a sound from the boiler as though something is running(??).
I noticed on another thread the operation sequence for this boiler and it says 'call for heat, fan starts etc.' I took the cover off and tried turning on the heating/hot water and the fan fails to start.
I'm at my wits end and freezing my t*ts off.
