    Boiler cutting Out when running hot water

    Hi I have a ferroli optimax HE plus 31c, and every time we run the hot water for 3-4 minutes the water goes cold and it gives the error code of A01 which means the ignition has gone and I have to reset the boiler.

    I've got a fault with above and I have a nagging suspicion that it is a fan fault although everything is pointing towards pcb. Have I just imagined this is the problem with the fans?

    Rads heating when running hot tap- twin pass heat exchanger.

    Trying get my head around this one. Worcester 28i RSF (twin pass heat exchanger) is heating rads when running hot tap. Other Engineers have just told customer to turn down TRV's. Not a fix for the problem as bypass rad still heats. Any ideas? Check valves on flow and return bellow boiler maybe?
