Does this happen on CH and HW demands?
yes on both ,but then after i while it stops makeing the banging noises ,but locks out when it gets to hot
If you can you need to check that the pump is running. A noise from it does not mean that it is rotating. See FAQ's on checking pumps and be careful to protect yourself and the boiler electrics from damage. If in doubt get a pro in to fix it.
