New member here. And I would appreciate some help re my ideal combi boiler. I have no water heating and no central heating working and getting F9 as the status in the boiler which according to the Manuel is an unconfigured PCB.
I’ve tested the fuse and it was fine.
I just wanted to ask would ordering a new PCB from ebay and fitting it myself solve this?
 
Nope it won't and you need the services of a gas safe engy
 
Unsure about warranty. Boiler was installed by carillion in January 2013. I moved into property in 2016. So a new PCB won’t fix this then?

you cant fix it either way sorry to say

need to be gas safe to do anything on a boiler these days (repair)
 
That’s fair enough.
Just for the record thou, I’m not touching any gas carrying parts I would simply be swapping plugs over like for like on new board which I was told I don’t need to be gas safe to do and is relatively easy.

the pcb is the brain so how are you going to be setting the gas components up with the old or new board

and you need to be gas safe to remove the cover to the boiler
 
How would you check the case seal is intact after removing the cover and it's burning correctly after replacing parts?
 
Check the seal with a match don’t you?

Thanks for your reply’s anyway. Got kids in the house so been really put off by the reply’s, clearly more dangerous than I first thought.
Will just bite the bullet and get someone gas registered.

Depending on boiler it could have a 7 year warranty, call ideal they will tell you.
 
Glad you have decided to call in a GSR engineer. You are correct it is not as easy as you think. Its not just plugging it in. Upon installation of a PCB you must immediately check the gas rate, the o2%, Co2 ppm the Ratio to name but a few and adjust as necessary. Not to mention checking the case seal for negative draft when it's all put back together.

Hello, I am seeking some advice, I have a POTTERTON PROMAX 28 COMBI Boiler and I noticed yesterday that the water around the house is no longer warming up. The heat exchanger has been changed 6 months ago, so I do not believe it is that. Does anyone have any ideas on what it could be? Thanks
