Got called out yesterday to this one, asked over the phone if there was a fault code and F13 was showing, She said previous engineer had been out twice and pulled connections on the board, puts back together works for a short while but locks out with the F13 again. Picked up a new board on way...
Anyone fitting Glow worm combis?
I need a cheaper alternative to put on a quote with a Vaillant 824
Was looking at the Flexicom and Ultracom-2
Good, bad or average?
It can't be an Ideal as it's to replace an Isar
It must have a 15mm gas connection or the new kitchen will need to be butchered

Good day all,
So i fitted a Ultracom 30sxi last year and all worked well. Up until a month or so back when the boiler seemed to stop modulating properly. It continues to fire, ramp up, hit temp and then stop. It does this every few mins....

Hi, I've checked the solenoids and the gas valve, all ok. Boiler just sparks, there is gas there, but it won't even ignite the pilot.
After some research on this boiler, someone said that the electrode leads have to be in exactly the correct place in the grey seal of the boiler? I've got to...

Hi all
Sorry for this being vague, but on my way home from work got a call from a friend who said they had had a power cut and the heating/hot water had gone off. I thought it would just be a case of resetting but my friend said she had gone to the boiler after the electric had come back on...

Disconnected condensate sensor (condensate is clear
Changed ionisation probe

Checked earthing
Still no joy. Still shows flame failure fault...
