Hi guys

Been to regular of mine, original call was pointing towards low pressure and LE Code, he topped it up and got the boiler working for a day or so but now it is absolutely dead.

I've been round and tested it and was leaning towards overheat stat but getting no voltage to it, started leaning towards pcb but on further testing I found the Emc filter had 240 going in but nothing coming out.

The manual is next to useless, thoughts?

Thanks... Merry Xmas!

LE is a overheat code but that means bu**er all on an icos . Whats an emc filter ?
 
pretty much my thoughts! Its this and its the first thing after the mains into the boiler and before the pcb. So I'm thinking some kind of transformer? I'll likely ring ideal on Thursday but just wondering if anyones come across it before.
Ideal 172604 emc filter kit | Wolseley
 
In short there a filter more for 3 port systems I believe they stop stray voltage / under voltage doing anything eg mv or sub 200 v

Think of like an aerial filter
 
Thanks, thinking I'll get emc filter, pcb and overheat stat. Can always take the parts back if they're not needed. Also pricing for a new boiler, its just over 12 years old. Done well for an Icos!
