can you remember any silver flex / could you see any pipework??

They're only small don't worry, unless it's a hippopotomouse:smoking:
Seriously though, take a pic under the boiler

Shut your eyes and open the cupboard door, count to 10 and hey presto 1 mouse who is as scared of you as you are of it will be gone when you open your eyes.

Can it not be fixed from the panel on this photo?

Nope. It's mouse time!

The gauge is showing a bar of pressure. Shouldn't need topping up. Must be something else, unless the gauge is fubbared.

Just looked again at your picture, is the 60 degree light flashing or constant, have you tried resetting it

The 60° lamp indicates low pressure as any fule kno.

It's either woman vs mouse or a cold house until hubby gets home.

I am sure the mouse is more scared than the woman, he has probably run upstairs and is hiding under her bed now

 

[ShaunCorbs]

you got 3 choices

make a trade with the mouse cheese for 10 mins of its time
hammer time
or be cold until hub comes home

why only get one

so what about the 60 light giving low pressure, more likely the pressure gauge is furbared and the sensor is correct, needs topping up still...

anything below .8 is low pressure light on them

I've had tweveral already and the Memsahib isn't overly impressed with my current sense of humour
I may retire to the (local 70yds up the road) and take my talents where they will be appreciated

Had a few where the pressure switch is particularly blocked and have to take to 1.5 to get working.

my point exactly

The knob is for hot water only, turn ccw towards rad+tap.
Still need topping up altough on some boilers hw works with as little as .5 bars pressure left.
Turn it off and back on it might work for 5 minutes before turning off again.
