Combi boiler stat not turning off heating

[Matt0029]

If the stat is not shutting off a combi boiler (analogue stat Honeywell) even though the stat is clicking when turned up above the room temperature. What are the likely causes. Unless it's never been wired right from the start up. Thanks.

Is a pro combi 100he.

I'll check the wiring etc the stat may not even be wired in. I guess.

Get your multimeter out and test to see if it's actually cutting the feed. Stats can still click despite having failed.

 

[Matt0029]

I just wondered if the stat can still be the fault if it is clicking when turned above and below room temperature? This is the stat?

I could be stuck but haven’t seen many esp the 6360s need to test

As Shaun and I say get your multimeter out , simple enough mate.

Check to make sure there’s not a link in the boiler end - either a 24v one, or linked the stat out.

 

[Matt0029]

Thanks yes I will check there is no link on the boiler.

Just going to download the instructions. But to test would I be looking to see if I get 240v between live and switch live?

Without trying to be condescending, do you know how to test the stat?

No mate, testing that you’ll probably get 120vac.

Test Neutral to live in (should be terminal 1) - 240vac
Test Neutral to Switch live - on demand - 240vac
Test Neutral to switch live - on satisfied (or stat at lowest) - should be 0 Vac

Thanks so testing neutral to live in. With a reading of 240vac between the ports. Shows I am getting 240vac to the stat.

 

[SJB060685]

If you test between live and switch live with the stat contacts closed, you would get a reading of 0 volts as there's no difference in potential between the two. As above you need to test between live and neutral and switch live and neutral.

 

[Matt0029]

Does testing neutral to switch live on demand with a reading of 240ac show that switch live is sending power to the boiler. Making a circuit when there is a call for heat?

Yes correct, but doesn’t prove it works properly, hence the additional testing and don’t forget the link.

Yes

 

[ShaunCorbs]

Test terminal 3 to earth or neutral with stat off should be no voltage

If there is 240v check 1 if that’s got 240v aswell stats dead

Thanks yes I will make sure it's wired in to the boiler.

Thanks just trying to find the wiring diagram. I think Live is 1. Neutral 3. Switch live 2. ?
