16.0 Fault Finding
Domestic Hot Water - Follow operational sequence
Turn selector to
neon illuminated
Primary flow switch operated
Fan runs at max speed
Pump runs
Turn thermostat to max.
Open DHW tap fully. DHW
flow switch operated
Primary water is diverted
from CH system to DHW
heat exchanger and flow
microswitch operated
Continuity across DHW flow
microswitch terminals and
PCB - M1 connector
terminals 13 & 14 (terminals
12-14 open)
Air pressure switch proved
neon illuminated
Burner on neon
illuminated
Spark at ignition electrodes
for up to 10 seconds
Go to section ‘A’
Go to section ‘B’
Go to section ‘C’
Go to section ‘J’, ‘L’ & ‘D’
Replace PCB
Turn the selector to the reset
position. If the light does not
extinguish go to section
H & K
Go to section ‘F’
Go to section ‘I’
DHW flow valve
senses no flow.
Primary water diverted to
CH system. DHW flow
switch released off
Close DHW tap
Burner goes out
Diverter valve spindle
assembly faulty
Pump stops Operation sequence correct
Turn the selector switch to
the ‘Reset’ position and hold
for at least 2 seconds. If
regular resetting is required,
or appliance still does not
operate investigation is
necessary
