potterton performa 24HE no spark

[manners1733]

Hi everyone I am a first time user, when I call for heating or hot water my boiler makes all the clicks and sounds with the fan running as it should, but the boiler does not spark, but when I gentle blow into the air pressure switch it makes a click sound then the boiler sparks then the burner lights up, but once I stop blowing the burner goes out.When the tube is connected to the nipple on the fan housing the switch does not click.There is air coming out off the nipple but I guess its not enough presseure ???Hopefully some one out there has a few ideas.ThanksJohn

My advice is leave the nipples alone and get a gas safe engineer in.

This plumbing forum will not provide advice to anybody with regards to boiler repairs or any other form of gas plumbing without you first providing us with your Gas Safe Registration number in a thread - for very obvious reasons. If you're not qualified to touch gas, you should stay well clear of trying to!
