Is your pump wired to be supplied from the boiler?

Have you checked for a call for heat at the boiler?

cheers for your response my pump is near the cylinder and when i turn the programmer on the wall on the pump kicks in but absolute nothing on the boiler if i disconect the the connectors at the pcb everyone turns a red led on except for the one which is at the back which looks like its wired to the ignition probes hope this makes sense cheers

Could this be a pcb prob

Any advise would be grateful cheers guys

This model of boiler is renowned for PCB failures. The PCB replacement kits are expensive, so my advice is to get a GSR engineer in to test and fix it.

No dont think so and i only get a green flashing led when i turn it on

Well it should be.

You dont tell where the pump is connected to by looking at lights. You need to look at the pump wires.

Or quicker see if anything is connected to the pump terminals at the boiler.

Nothing in the terminals it is connected into a box upstairs near the cylinder

The pump should be connected to the boiler.

But you need to establish if there is a call for heat signal at the boiler.

Tony

 

[pskl]

it is not and never as been the boiler is controlled by a unit in the kitchen and the flashing led says its calling but nothing is happening

 

[pskl]

Thanks for all your comment but ive bit the bullet and putting a combi in

That seems a rather extreme response when you dont even know if there is a call for heat voltage on the appropriate terminal of the boiler!

Potty do a fixed price repair for about £300. An independent will be cheaper if its not anything serious. About the same if it needs a new PCB.

Most would say a storage tank is better than a combi hot water supply.

Flashing green light means the boiler thinks is up to temp, it could be something as simple as a slow running pump
