MKIIF Potterton Netaheat 10-16 will not ignite

[akthar]

Please can someone give me some advice. I've just bought a new house and it has one of these boilers installed. I cannot seem to get the pilot light to come on. There is a 1 amp glas fuse which I have changed for new. The coil does click and gets warm but I still don't get the light to ignit. Can someone give me some suggestions of what to look for. I will be replacing the unit but cannot do so at the moment.


I would be grateful for any suggestions.


Thanks in advance.

are you getting a spark at the ignition electrode ?

I can't see any spark at all. Is the ignition node the grey module connected to the coil??

This boiler has no permanent pilot. Sparking isn't the first thing which happens. But its a dangerous boiler - even taking the cover off you're taking a risk you shouldn't. because you won't know how to or be able to test the case seals - even now you know that you have to. Sorry - leave it alone and call someone out.
