boiler restarting is it the pump faulty

[mickytwohammers]

sorry forgot what i should do micky2h here
Wilo pump RS15 when central bleed screw is removed lots of water shoots out
rather than a dribble does this mean impeller is not spinning boiler is restarting every 30 seconds

any clues please

They generally gush water out when the bearing seals have gone.
Check for electric supply first, if you have voltage and you can't make it start with a small screwdriver in the shaft. I'm afraid it's had it.

thanks pump is running i.e. power etc
but gush water seals might be gone i was wondering if blocked or impeller loose might cause access water from front and hence boiler restarting

What boiler is it?

 

[gassafe]

Might not mean the pumps gone, Iv noticed some shoot out more water than others...

Ravenheat CSI about 9 years old it keeps starting turning off on all works but not as it should be
i thought pump maybe not be working propely

 

[Rickster123]

Ravenheat csi is a combi isn't it? So you've removed the boiler casing to access the pump?..
