Got a problem with above boiler, fault code f81 and discharge from vent, central heating working OK.
I think it may be a faulty temp sensor causing overheating, gauge shows 55degrees.

Hi all

Many thanks

Hello folks. I have a 12-year-old Glow Worm 30cxi combi powering hot water and central heating. The analogue timer clock packed up recently and would not fire up the central heating either. Assuming it to be a fault with the clock, I got a second hand replacement and fitted it. Clock keeps...

Turn it on and the radiator symbol flashes as if it's calling for heat. Even with no demand. Hot water will not kick in. When you run hot tap the hot water symbol on the boiler does not even flash.
There is...
