No hot water from my Worcester 24CDi boiler!!!

[singleton47]

Can anyone help me? My Worcester 24CDi boiler CH is working, but the HW is not working! When you turn on a tap, the water is warm for a few seconds and then goes cold!

Most likely diverter valve, 2 minute job to fix

I would look at the diverter too, but couldn't promise 2 minutes.

Thanks guys. Any Idea what price I should be paying for a new diverter valve from the plumb shop?

Sorry, but I can't drink my coffee until it has cooled down more than it does in 2 minutes. I know, I'm a whimp.

I've heard it call many things, but not diverter.

Does the pin in the middle come out and then go back in?

£102 was what i paid for the last 1 - bloody rip off

I think you could use a cheap one and just swap over the part of the diaphragm housing with the "O" ring push in connector.

But no engineer would usually want to do that job unless they were very short of work! Much more fun to be on holiday in ACC.

Is not the DV on the cdi a little awkward to get at? Requires a little dissasembling.. Not at all sure that it is a 2 min job.... Perhaps i'm old and slow...

Its a nasty job that i avoid!

You start be removing all those fiddly plastic filling bits at the front and some usually breay or are stuck.

Then a massive internal disection job.

Better left to a fixed price repair from Worcester!
