Y-plan Issues - quick help needed please!

[Doomed]

you do have the gas switched on?

 

[Greg Taylor]

Boiler locking out? Is the blue light solid or flashing?

Solid.... No errors.

im just concentrating on the orange and Cyl wires at the moment! Maybe loose connection.

Yeah my gas fire is kicking out some heat as we speak!

turn ch on programmer and turn room thermostat up and check for correct voltage on LR
and do the same for hot water after you have tried the ch or vice versa.

the isolator at the boiler for gas?

the isolator at the boiler for gas?

I haven't touched it... Unless it is an automatic thing?

 

[Leesparkykent]

the isolator at the boiler for gas?

if he didn't have gas the boiler would try and fire and would fail and would bring the fault up on the boiler by the blue light flashing in a certain sequence.

Has this new boiler been properly commissioned by a gas safe registered plumber?

Solid.... No errors.

Why would there be loose connections in a newly connected installation?

Get your voltage tester and check to see what voltage you have at the Lr terminal when the control system is in such a state that there should be a demand.

yes I've had it a few years now. But recently changed the thermostat and control panel to Honeywell.

It is not newly installed. It's 70/80's wiring with new Thermostat and Control Panel. Boiler has been in a few years now.

On the programmer you should have number 1 connected to grey on valve and satisfied on cylinder thermostat, number 3 to cylinder thermostat common and number 4 to room thermostat common.

 

[davesparks]

Did it work correctly before you made these changes?

Are you an electrician? Is this a job for a paying customer?

 

[robsparky1975]

If you have changed the programmer and thermostat,there within lies the answer,they have HW ON/OFF,CH ON OFF which if wired incorrectly can cause you problems.

Thats how I have it! I will check again tomorrow and PM you mate.
