boiler wont light and have noticed in a few other threads, that the fan should be turning, but mine isnt. I tried blowing in the red tube and can hear the pressure switch click but still the boiler doenst attemp to start.
The pump is turning and the first neon is on, do you think it's the fan or the pressure switch?
What else can I try to narrow it down?

All help very much appreciated, thanks for this brilliant site.
I did ask in anotehr thread but thought it might be better to start my own.

Cheers

Alan

Have you checked the reset button on the boiler???????, if it has tripped it will cut the boiler off completely

it may be a valve stuck either one of your zone valves may be sticking in the open position keeping the boiler on or if you have a frost protection stat on your system that could be faulty keeping the boiler on try these and let me know how you get on

D your a star I pressed it and it all burst into life!!!!!!

any reason why it tripped in the first place? I have noticed the boiler running at night, even tho the timer is off it seem to be pumping around hot water. I can't find my manual so not sure what to service if anything, I cleaned out the heat fans when I took it apart looking for faults.

Thanks again for this instant fix!!

the first thing to do is check that the reset button hasn't tripped, then check for power at the fan..the reset button is a small cross headed red button
