Have you checked the batteries in the wireless thermostat if you have one? Is the mains water pressure adequate? What make and model of combi-boiler do you have, Patsy?
Right Douglas, I can see a little gauge it has a curved grey bar and a little red one further round. The needle is two thirds past on grey. There is a controller next to it with 0 1. Can't go past the 1.
Fred, it's a Valiant.
Valiant! Eanceoil, where is the reset button. I can't hear anything, so maybe that's what's needed. I pressed the 'flame' button and it's come on by the sound of it!
my combi is an Immerdas, where I have icons of the boiler, then the boiler and rads, there is a RESET {I'm not shouting there} printed under those tow pictures, mine are not buttons but wheels, or dials, and I drag the dial down to reset, it works usually after that, I hear the water filling up and the pilot light flares up
Eanceoil, got it going! I've been fiddling round. Pushed the 'flame' button, didn't work at first. Not sure what I did, haha... Anyway it worked. Thank to all for responding.
