Find manual. Follow diagnostic flow chart. "Does the boiler ignite for a short term after reset? - No. "Is gas pressure available >18mbar" - I don't have the kit to test, but the gas fire works, so lets assume yes. "Is 215V available at gas valve". Find multi-meter - No. "Check wiring continuity from valve to PCB". Ok, set multimeter to "resistance", check needle. Feck! battery's flat. Open multimeter to change battery. Corroded to feck. Damn. Dismantle multi-meter, remove gacky battery, clean out acidy muck. clean terminals, find new battery, re-assemble. Find circuit board layout in manual. Check boiler wiring continuity like the manual says. All good. Manual says "if wiring is OK then replace pcb" Do internet search for pcb. 160 quid for a new one.! strewth. Look on ebay instead. 36 - 39 quid for a refurbed one. Can I trust them? Find a place that's sold plenty and has positive reviews. Order one for delivery tomorrow. I hope it's not low gas mains pressure caused the fault and fingers crossed the pcb turns up and works. Thats the pcb out. Just need the new one to turn up now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just got a pile of incense sticks from amazon and was trying out some of the more unusual fragrances. Like these... Thankfully "cannabis" does not smell like Chelmsley Wood. I'm perplexed by "black love", no idea what that should smell like. I'd ask "livingthelifeofavillain" but I think he's banned 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In related news I only noticed the other day that my hot water tank has a switch to heat it electrically if the boiler were to fail. I’ve been here 3.5 years and didn’t know it existed.
