start up problem with vokera linea 24

[steveo 1]

boiler was working fine then came home and it had stopped. The pressure was very low (bottomed out) and had red light on. I have refilled the loop to around 1.25 bar and now when I turn the boiler back on, the green light is on but there is no heat either for the central heating or for the hot water.

According to the manual, all I need to do is to to switch the heating to BOTH (picture of tap and radiator) then turn CH to full and it should start up.

There is a timer (which is set to permenantly on) and there is NO thermostat. Can anyone think of anything else I need to check before the boiler should fire back up please?

As mentioned in the header, it is a Vokera Linea 24.

Any help would be appreciated as I don't want to pay a call out just for someone to spend ten seconds doing what I should have done myself.

Many Thanks
Steveo

Have you turned the mode selector switch to off/reset for 10 seconds?

Is the red light flashing?

Is the red light flashing?

yeah the red light is flashing and the error code is 07

If the fault is 07 I think that thermistor error. It will be goosed and an engineer will be needed to repair.

i have just put a new thermistor in, shut the water off at the mains but the water still came out very fast. i managed to get the new thermistor on. but im still getting the red light flashing and 07 error message. can you think of anything else please.

Time to stop messing around with something that will kill you and to get a professional in.
