Job tonight
Went to see said boiler that was not firing. I reset the boiler and pump runs micro switch makes but fan does not run and boiler doesn't fire. It flashes flame symbol and fan symbol. I have checked for 240 at fan which I'm not getting and 240v from pcb at fan harness but 0v . I have it down as fault on pcb. Anyone else worked on these boilers and am I on the right track.
 
Not checked fuses. I wouldn't have thought air pressure switch would need checking as the fan doesn't run. I thought air pressure comes after the fan in the sequence

Without blowing down the tubes, how do you test a 3 wire APS. Would you measure the low voltage sent via the board. How exactly does it work?
 
Ok to wrap this up. Been back tonight with an aps and a pcb. Checked the air pressure switch for continuity from common to nc and no. I did get continuity but if was abit scetchy. I changed thd aps but this however made no difference so I then changed the pcb which solved the problem. In other words it was the pcb after all. I wouldn't have minded putting the old aps back in to check but it was late.
Thanks everyone
