Hi all,
Hope somebody out there can help me with an intermittent fault with my Powermax 185.
Note that the boiler is set to 24 hour mode for both heating and hot water.
Roughly once per day the boiler will not react to the central heating or hot water falling below temperature.
The central heating will just go cold.
When you turn the roomstat you can hear it click but you cannot hear the pump start.
When you run the hot water (or more annoyingly take a shower) the water will run cold.
Basically the burner is not coming on when demanded.
To clear this fault the boiler has to be switched off then back on again, the burner then lights and all will be fine until it happens again.
Note that the boiler is set to 24 hour mode for both heating and hot water.
I have checked that the hot water l.e.d. and central heating l.e.d. are lit when the boiler is in the fault condition.
Any ideas ?? Thanks.
