British gas 330+ problems

[Daryl1980]

Hi folks bit of a dillema here an could do with picking your brains, I've an s plan 330+ british gas boiler system that's not firing when the heatings being called for, it fires fine for the hot water zone valve for the hot water moves fine but the heating won't kick over when it's being called on, I've tried moving the lever manually and it still doesn't fire. Any help would be much appreciated!

Put the cover back on the boiler also are you getting live from the heating port valve ?

Covers been back on, I'll need to test that tomorrow, something else thats been happening for a while now is when the hot waters on the radiators upstairs get hot aswell, don't know if this could be linked?

You haven’t left the port valve open have you ?

Probably sounding a bit dense but what's the mico switch? Hold my hands up I'm no heating engineer.

No when I pull the heating port valve over to open manually it springs back over automatically

Just got round to testing the heating port valve for live and it is getting power
