Wondering if anybody could help me,having a problem with a 50/90 slimline kabin pak the boiler only fires when the door of the casing is off when it's firing and you put it back on it knocks of,so I'm thinking its the fan or the air in take any ideas?????
 
some previous posts on this issue if you look and check your wiring for shorts as a starter as well as blocked air intake or broken seals.

The problem will be due to the burner being starved of air. It has to be set up with the door on. Opening the air up slightly should cure it but you would need to have someone with a flue gas analyzer to set it up. The other thing it could be is a leaking cleaning door gasket so that when you close the door it is breathing its own fumes. Either way its an engineers job.
 
Thanks for your help,I've tried open the air intake and then it works but it's not burning right and I don't have a flue analyzer.should the fan be taking a part and cleaned out or just changed?
