Flow switch common fault
 
As Shaun says it's a common problem with flow switches. This needs to be replaced sooner rather than later. Ive known leaking flow switches to take out PCB's and damage burner components
 
Most of them use the same eg Worcester warmflow
 
many thanks gents will try to find one, quite old boiler Rhino

Just google your boiler make and model flow switch, you should be able to find one. Alternatively you might be able to adapt with a different make, a flow switch is just a paddle inside that connects a live and switch live
