Need help, setting horstmann economy 7 - it's just not working

[Xto]

Hi guys,

First thank you for reading and helping out.

Ok I got the above water timer, since last week it's just doesn't seem to be working.

First off i set the time as per current time, i set the time as "summer." but it just doesn't seem to heating up the water and importantly it doesn't seem to maintain the hot water throughout the day.

What am I doing wrong?
the timer dial is set to current time based on 24 hr clock, there are two groves between the times of 24to3am and 5am to 8am. But it only clicks when the from 5 am.


How do iI set it to heat up as before, through out the day?
whennthe water timer light goes red does this mean water is heating up? ( non boost light)
-
All help will be apperciated

Richard thanks. It seems only the top heating element is working. I'm constantly hourly doing the boost. I can't seem to trigger the heating by designated time grooves

In that case if the timer is showing a red light when the lower immersion should be working but you are not getting heat, then either there is a loose connection to the immersion heater element or, the immersion heater element has burnt out and needs replacing.

Hi,
We have a Horstmann Economy 7 Quartz which has recently stopped working altogether, after a period where the only way to make it work was using the Boost option.
I noticed that @snowhead above was asking earlier whether a new meter had recently been fitted. In our case, the answer is yes, we had a smart meter fitted around 6-8 weeks ago. All seemed to be well for a while but we first noticed the lack of hot water about 2 weeks ago. Using the Boost worked for a while but now that doesn't seem to working either.
Any help or suggestions appreciated !
