DIYer here and this has been annoying me now for a few days.
It all started with the boiler (Potterton Suprima with a new board) in the kitchen just clicking on and off failing to light. A few minutes with the meter and I speculated that there was a pump motor problem especially since spinning...
Hi
Potterton Suprima I have to look at, red flashing light. Will not reset on button.
if it's switched off at the wall then switched back on it fires up fine and will run for a few hours no problem.
Goes off again, will not relight.
What would you be checking?
I'm thinking slow running...

This has been an on going issue for a while now and its finally kicked the bucket.
She called me up as the the fuses had tripped. Clicked the breakers and the boiler isnt turning on...
My potterton performa system he won't seem to work. Heating wouldn't work so I topped it up to 1.5 bar as it was empty. Went to restart it and nothing would work on it. Tried to turn off and on nothing. The gas valve went around this time last year also. The light comes in for the power and the...
Hi all,
I've read quite a few posts on here that have helped me try and diagnose the issue I'm having with our boiler, so thanks for that! But unfortunately we still haven't figured it out.
So far I've spent a fair few hundred on an engineer to come and diagnose the problem, but even he is...
Hello, You appear to have misunderstood what I was asking for. I tried to make it clear that I have not and will not attempt to open the boiler myself. Having had two GSR people who had no idea how to fix, it I thought someone on this forum may have seen this problem before. I would then be able...
Hello, first post so be gentle with me. The boiler was in the house when we bought it, yes I know it is not the best in the world. The problem. When firing water dripping out of inner case. Before I get ear ache I have not even remove the outer case. The boiler has just been serviced and no...
Hi I have joined this great forum to try and get some advice from the experts here :smiley2:
9 years ago I built an extension that has been finished externally but due to a new baby arriving work stopped and it still hasnt been completed!!! At the time I bought a new boiler that is still...
Hello,
My Potterton Promax combi HE plus indicates error message E116 (low pressure) and I can't seem to figure out how to fix it.
Here are pictures of the combi and user manual, the pictures in the user manual don't exactly look like my combi.
Any help would be more than welcome, thank...
First of all a Merry Christmas to all
The boiler will start ok from cold but once it's been running a while it goes into the start up sequence with the pump and fan cutting in and then immediately off and keeps repeating this process until it eventually starts up. Both or either MRV's are...
Banging noise when boiler cycles running central heating, also when drawing hot water when ch is on on switching off hot tap after a few seconds there is a bang and a whoosh as though the boiler is firing even though it is already firing ie flame light is on and making a firing noise, water...
Hi all,
Last night we tried to turn on the heating for the first time this autumn and it turns out it is not working. The hot water works fine, the flame comes on periodically to heat it even when not in use, but the radiators are completely cold, no hot water is coming out their way. Do not...
Hi there, If anyone can help me or at least give me some pointers it would be great, as I am seriously stuck.
I do have a technical back ground but my knowledge of central heating is very limited, prior to making a choice on attempting a repair or looking at going down the combi route as a...
Hi
I have a strange fault with my boiler and I can't figure out what is going on...
I have a Potterton Suprima 80 HE approx 6 years old and I haven't had any major issue until now.
Two days ago it stopped working, the indicator lights were all off. Previously when this boiler had the...
Went to one of these this week boiler locked out.
Reset, and fired then dropped out 5 times to lockout.
Checked ignition sensing probes and cleaned, then all 3 cables slid out of porcelain.
Combustion door seal was brittle on bottom right.
Ordered spares and fitted replaced seals, fired up...
It's an old one I know but I would like to nurse it through another winter. Problem is persistent loss of pressure. I now need to top it up every morning. I live in a flat and leaks of that order would be obvious to the people downstairs PDQ surely! Yes, I know about micro leaks but this is...
I am having a bit of a nightmare with a Profile 100e. I was called in because it was over heating and kept tripping them stat. A new pump was fitted about 6 months ago. I put my clamps on the flow and return pipes directly above the boiler and the overheat stat was tripping when the flow pipe...
Hi guys,
Every few months I find myself changing the gland nut and o ring on my boiler because it starts to leak. I use silicon grease and it looks all good and doesn't leak for ages.
It's the nut where the rod comes out and triggers the hot water.
Is this a common fault or is there a way to...
