Tempra 18 boiler. will fire up but will not stay alight

[Melcos]

I have been able to get the jets to fire up and the boiler to come on but it appears that after 5 to 6 seconds the boiler turns itself off. the pressure light is constantly flashing flashing indicating low pressure, but the pressure bar indicates the i have over 1 bar.
Is there something i can do. [/quote][/code][/b]

Low water pressure switch is either blocked or faulty. Although I am not o-fay with this appliance so could not guarantee it.

i presume it is ferroli we are talking about

the pressure switches are not very good, when pressure is lost and restored they block up, easily cleaned with a strand of electric cable poked carefully in the hole.

I dont recommend poking anything into a hole.

Its much better to just fit a new one.
