Hi guys
got this issue with a suprima, the red light constantly stays on even after resetting it.the pump runs and there is live on swl.
the pump was installed by another engineer who was there before I went to check on the boiler fault.
basically all the wiring was wrong on the y plan so I done the wiring as required. The boiler worked ok for two days but now it's having this solid red light and nothing after that.
Took the cover out to check the oh stat and just ran my voltage pen over there was live on the flow pipe and the oh stat. Confirmed that with an electric test and there was 240v on the flow pipe and the oh stat,Could it be the wiring loom is faulty or the pcb?
Thanks in advance for the advice
 
The Grundfos Alpha 2 pumps are also incompatible with these PCB's. Found that straight from Baxi Engineer after had a boiler eating boards every 6 weeks. Replaced it for a UPS2 and never missed a beat, that was 18 months ago.

Nothing from Grundfos or Baxi in way of a memo or update though.
 
Hello mateys,

Thanks for your suggestions.
Aquazone you were right mate. The new grundfos pumps mess about with these boilers pcbs hence the need to fit the suppresor cables. I confirmed with one of my mates who works for heateam.
The newer versions on these pumps whic come with the wiring connector that can be pushed in does not require the suppresor cables, unfortunately the pump that i had to put up with were the earler versions where we had to push them pins in to fit the cables in.
Had to replace the pcb as that had blown out.
your right elgordo!!
