Turn the thermostat on the front of the boiler to Off or Zero

Switch off the electrical supply to the boiler - switch it on again

Make sure the timer/programmer is "calling" for heat

Make sure the room stat is calling for heat

Turn up the boiler's thermostat control to mid position 3

Listen for the fan running - does it fire up? If not...

Put in a new question saying what's happening, what's not happening and the specific model of your Potterton boiler - there are dozens of different types - somebody might help you.

Alternatively call in a gas safe registered engineer - use yellow pages or personal recommendation.

Good luck
