My Alpha CB28 has an intermittent fault since last year. Fire it up and it'll run for anything between 10 mins and over an hour then I get a permanent A light and the one second flashing B light. The boiler gets very little use so sometimes it's OK for an hour or so sometimes not. I just power off and back on to get it up and running again. I have noticed that I'm losing pressure more rapidly than before, but not dramatically. I believe this light configuration indicates a pressure problem but can anyone help me point to a particular part or parts? I have had a good engineer look at it and he talked about the Thermistor(?) and reflating the expansion tank(?) - but unfortunately the problem didn't occur in the hour he was there! Any advice much appreciated thanks. It's 13 years old about but as I say, I've had it for 10 of those and it gets well under an hours daily use on avarage across the year - it is very clean and I've tried to look after it.
 
This plumbing forum will not provide advice to anybody with regards to boiler repairs or any other form of gas plumbing without you first providing us with your Gas Safe Registration number in a thread - for very obvious reasons. If you're not qualified to touch gas, you should stay well clear of trying to!
