Honeywell ST6400C Programmer reboots itself when CH+HW programs turn on

[rumbln]

Hi - I have inherited an old ST6400C when we moved in 7 years ago. I'd guess its 15 years old looking at the agr of the boiler etc. Generally been working OK but I recently replaced the mechanical dial wired thermostat ( see pic ) with a meross mts200b ( see pic ).

Since then ( it may only be a coincident ), fairly regularly, but not all the time, the programmable timer (ST6400C) will just reboot ( continuously) when CH+HW go live.

I believe the mts200b wiring is correct - the switched live goes live when the thermostat drops below temperature.

Have a just got a dodgy ST6400C or is my wiring of the thermostat causing it?

Any help greatly appreciated!

Thanks

If it’s worked before you changed the wiring, then it’s suggests this could be the fault. Have you tried putting the Honeywell T6360 back in to confirm? I think your Meross needs a permanent live and permanent neutral. Your dial stat (T6360) could have been wired incorrectly/back to front too.

Ah good points Stuckinarut,

Unfortunately the T6360 was thrown away. The meross unit does require a permanent live but I've turned the CH on permanently so I'm assuming that effectively the same thing. The wires may be connected wrongky but I ran a multimeter over N,L and S/L and all behaved as I expected.

I was wondering if I could take the meross unit out of the equation and replacing it with a wiring block I could discount the meross unit ?

That would work.

Your wiring to the Meross appears to be correct.

Personally, I would take the ST6400C out of the equation.
It already has the C/H turned to permanently on; why not bypass it completely?
If you can show us the wiring behind the ST6400C, we can advise you how to bridge it out.
