Moved in 3 and half years ago powermax is 13-14 years old. Have had a lockout but got it restarted. Yesterday would not ignite but after 30 mins finally got it going, but went completely off after a couple of hours. Now power light on. hot water and heating lights on and you can move them. Both on 24hour. If you turn power boiler switch but nothing. Will not start fan etc

Sam, ths sounds like failure of either the fan or of the fan starter capacitor.
Are you wanting to diagnose this yourself? It's probably a job for a boiler technician really unless you are competent with electrical testing.

Hi Mike Thanks for your response. Had a plumber round today who knows the boiler as hes nursed our neighbours over the years. Fan started working again last night, only a handful of lockouts but have hearing and hot water at the moment. Hes going to songis best and keep it going if it fails again until new year when hopefully we have the funds to replace. Sam
