Anyone familiar with this boiler and come across something similar before?

The tech guys said it must be an external control. I'm not so sure.

New fan put in 3 weeks ago.

Colleague thinks pcb or gas valve, leaning towards pcb.

I have ordered a few different parts so hopefully its one of those.

gas valve solenoid not closing and cutting gas off?

Thats one possibility discussed today. I have ordered the gas valve and pcb and aps.

Could it be the air pressure switch dropping in and out or the tubes leaking to the aps

I have picked up an aps, that was my first thought until i spoke to tech and they said its something external to the boiler.

That'll cover it. My bets on flame rectification, it'll be the pcb or a knackered electrode lead.

New fan fitted by someone 3 weeks ago, hose on the back split. Couldn't even see it. Replaced pas as likely on way out.
