Hi all,
I have an Idea Concord WRS boiler (230A).
Last week I removed a radiator for decorating and on the same day paid a guy (corgu regerstered) to come round and remove the feed to an old gas fire. He obvioulsy turned the gas supply off which would have killed the supply to the boiler as well.
After he has gone I realised that I would need to re-light the boiler. After quite a few attempts I finanally manged to light the pilot light. However the boiler will now not fire. The thermostat is turned up high, hot water and heating turned on and rotary knob on boiler is set to 6. All you can hear is a very quiet sound like a pump (maybe). The pilot light stays on but boiler just won't fire.
Any ideas? Maybe by turning off the gas supply without first turning off the boiler has activated some sort of safety shut off valve? I'm in the dark because I don't have any instructions for it. I would really apreciate some help because I don't want to pay for a plumber unless I really have to. I even put the radiator back on to make sure this wasn't the problem but obviously this made no difference.
Cheers,
Chris
