Hi guys, woke up this new freezing cold morning to discover that during the night all my rads had gone cold, immediately went to check my boiler (Potterton Puma 100e) and found all to be in order, and found the CH feed pipe to be hot, further investigations found that the feed pipes to all upstairs rads are hot, but only 1 rad showing any signs of warmth, and absolutely no heat in any of the downstairs pipework. I have bled both radiators and pipework with no success, advice please ?
Boiler or Pipework problem ?

Possible pump failure, perhaps the diverter valve has stuck.
thanks, for the speed reply meldrew's_mate, pump failure is my primary suspect, i assumed because i had hot water exiting via the CH feed pipe that the diverter valve must be open, or is that a false assumption ?
