the boiler switches itself off and displays the flashing radiator sign. If I change the d2 setting to 2 mins then after the 2 mins boiler comes on but very quickly shoots up to the 70° (and then to 72°) and shuts it self down again, so the boiler is on at most for around 10seconds. If I change the d2 back to say 15 minutes then this appears to give it long enough for everything to cool down and it reverts back to beginning of this paragraph. The important thing is that never does it get warm enough for the room thermostat to switch it off, the boiler internal thermostat always cuts in first. It runs 15mm bore upstairs and I believe plastic pipes in wall and then a small amount of microbore connecting downstairs rads. Last year I removed all rads and flushed each one out and this year I have drained system and flushed out several times so it is certainly not clogged up. This seems to happen whatever temperature I put boiler at i.e 55° as opposed to 70°. I read somewhere that it could be the micro switch in the three port valve and my valve certainly seemed stiff and was getting very hot (hotter than the water flowing through it) so I have replaced this and it appears to have improved matters but problem still persists. Incidentally when I removed valve it was fairly clean in the pipes and certainly not seized. Pump spindle is free and appears to work well at all speeds. Any suggestions?
