    Potterton Suprima 50L

    Switched the boiler off at fused spur then switched it on again. Boiler's working with both heating and hot water but the LED is rapidly flashing red and it won't go off. Any ideas how to fix it? Tried resetting the boiler and switching it off and on again but continues to flash red. Thanks

    Potterton Suprima 50L

    Yes, I know, get a new one . Fires up (only using HW at mo), runs, burner on say 10-15mins then cuts out (flashing red), hold red, yellow flash once after 3 secs flashes again, after reset will work again sometimes until demand time complete. Think this indicates an ignition fault but if that's...

    Potterton Promax HE 15 2004

    er OK, so here is an update on this boiler to see if anyone else is the wiser. I actually got longer than 15 minutes in the property today. I cleaned out the condensation trap, this was blocked, therefore causing the boiler to lockout. The trap was full of 14 years worth of aluminium by the...
