Halstead Finest boiler regularly locking out

[Wanttogetitfixed]

Hi,

I have a Halstead Finest boiler that has been regularly locking out (red LED light goes on) this winter resulting in cold showers and a freezing flat. The boiler was in the property when I moved in so it at least 3 years old.

Qualified technicians have taken a look at the boiler and the following appear to not be contributing factors to the boiler locking out:
- Pressure
- Diaphragm
- Fan
- Venturi
- Micro switches

The boiler does make an unusual noise before locking out. The clicking noise which sounds like the boiler igniting is repeated about 5/6 times before locking out.

I would appreciate any adivce/tips in an effort to not fork out a lot of money to replace the boiler.

Thanks

This is likely to be a gas related problem and we do not give DIY gas advice on an open forum.

You mention "qualified technicians" whatever they are! Whoever they were they are clearly not competent to correctly diagnose the fault and I hope you did not pay them!

The obvious advice is to get a competent boiler engineer to diagnose and fix your boiler for you.
