Hi
I've been having problems with my boiler for about 4 months now, where it would lock-out if demand switched on and off in quick succession, whether it came from DHW or CH. It would also lock-out if left running on CH after about 60 - 90 minutes. Ijust re-set it each time it happened.
So yesterday i had a go at repairing the fault - following the flowchart diagram in the manual, i decided to replace the sense electrode. I removed the front panel of the main burner in doing so, and as far i can tell i reassembled everything correctly. I also for some strange reason loosened the single screw holding the ignition box in place, removed it slightly, and then tightened it back up.
Anyway the result of this is that the boiler now fails to ignite at all. The fan and pump seem to be working, then after about 10 secs there's no ignition and the boiler locks out. (i even replaced the old sense electrode, but it made no difference)
I then tested the main gas pressure point, follwoing the manual, and discovered there's no gas pressure when a hot water tap is run.
Any suggestions on where i go from here? I read on this group that it may having something to do with a pilot feed being blocked or a blown fuse in the controller - is this something i should check? It's a Vokera Maxin combi.
Any advice appreciated.
