Hi,

I need some advice please. I had an Ideal Instinct boiler fitted 12 months ago with a salus RT510TX control.
I wanted to change the timings on the salus so I've asked three plumbers/ heating engineers for help whilst renovating my house recently. Two guys said it was probably easy but weren't familiar and wouldn't touch it and the third guy pressed all the buttons which has thrown it completely and it now won't turn on automatically at all !!!

I've attempted to re pair it with the help of YouTube and also reset it using another video but its still not coming on? There is a red light flashing on and off on the boiler at times. I'm exasperated to be honest as the plumbers who originally fitted don't want to come out as its too far. It is also showing as Monday when in fact its Thursday and I'm not sure how to change that?

Any help much appreciated. I'm wondering if its in the boiler where the problem lies?

Thanks
 
I would guess that the binding between the thermostat / timer and RF receiver has been lost or corrupted. Try clearing the binding and rebind / pairing the units again.

If that fails, it is probably cheaper to buy a new thermostat / timer and receiver than trying to repair it.

Thank you for your reply. I've tried re pairing it as best I can and I've reset the clock but its still not working so I've given up and got an engineer coming out on Tuesday
 
I’ve got the same probs with my salus stat and connection to receiver fitted on the boiler. Batteries in stat died and I didn’t realise, so changed them out, now I’m having problems with it re-pairing with the boiler receiver. It’s flashing all the while. Tried all the tips….taking batteries out and leaving for few hours, turning power off to boiler then going thru re-pairing process but it’s just not re connecting with each other. Got Duracell batteries for the stat and everything lights up etc, but it’s just not pairing. 😡😡😡😡. Driving me friggin nuts now!!
