i left my hot tap running whilst on holiday for 5 days and now my boiler will not fire up to give me any hot water.has something burnt out.i have tried with the reset button but no joy?

What boiler is it? Possibly overheat stat. Why don't you get someone out to have a look?

im not gas safe but to save the others time tell them the boiler make and model ! have you checked theres gas in ur meter ! is there power to the boiler etc ! any recent work been done ?

I bet your looking forward to your next gas bill!

It's hard to say without further details?

What's your location? I think it'd be easier for someone to come and have a look.

Are lights on,is there any lights flashing or any code flashing and what make is it

 

[pfarrell34]

its BAXI 133 HE.no recent work done and there is power.when you turn on the hot tap you can hear it making a few noices then the reset button comes on

 

[on31ll]

does the heating work ? and there is gas ?

 

[glenno1]

Call gas engineer

 

[on31ll]

as glenno1 said call the gas engineer ! your not gonna be able to fix this yourself

Have you checked the pressure in your boiler?

If that is correct then I would advise you get a local gas safe engineer

You can post in the find a plumber forum for someone local to you

Try turning off power to boiler (Main Switch) Leave for about 5min then switch back on ! Helps clear curcit board and reset boiler.
