hi there, ive just tried to fire up the boiler in a house i bought, its been off for 6 months at least. system was drained, so ive filled it up to 1 bar, switched the boiler on and it fired up ok, according to the temp gauge it was heating up quickly then it stopped, switched control back to 0 waited 5 secs and switched back to 1, nothing, after a few attempts i switched off the fuse spur and tried again, still nothing, the bolier is reading F5, can anyone help please? thanks in anticipation geoff

sounds to me like the pump has siezed and the boiler has over heated.
