biasi m96 irratic ignition fault

[mutley racers]

So the above boiler is going through its sequence, flow switch, pump runs, fan, aps and lights. But as soon as it lights all power cuts out. It will do this 3 or 4 times and then works ok. It does it in both hot water and heating. But is very random. I had to turn the hot tap on and off for 15minutes to get it to do this. I am thinking it is the Rectification probes. Am I close? Has anyone else had this before?

Thanks fellere. I look forward to hearing your advice

I'd agree sounds like a rectification issue, worth checking leads and earthing first though.

I had the same fault on an m96 a few months ago, it was the PCB.

Id agree with pcb but for what it costs you could try rectification lead

Ah no, I was actually thinking that. I hate it when it's the pcb. It costs too much to be wrong. Off to get a pcb then. Thanks Mountain man

why not?

you phone tech help of manufacturer and they do the same

cover your bum i say

How do you go about charging for this? As I go there and diagnose the problem, order the part and go back and fit? Do I charge for 2hrs. As the 1st hour is a price no matter what and then to go back and fit?

When you say pcb, which one? As there is one for the ignition and the other one

Well in the end I just bought the 2 PCB's but reconditioned one's. They are guaranteed for a yr. And, it now works fine. Thanks guys for all the advice
