Water & Heating not working at the same time

[Daksha Pandya]

What could be the issue if my heating and water cannot work at the same time. I have changed the programme clock (twice) but cannot see what the issue is? Any help appreciated

Hi
What programmer have you got ? make / model. Do you know what control system you have got, has it got motorized valves (two, one on the heating pipe & one going to the cylinder or have you got a 3 port one ??)

Its A Drayton with a 3 port

Hi I just have either water or heating, not both at the same time. I have a Potterton boiler and I have had issues with this over a period of time with probably similar problems. I have spent a lot of money having had the controller, programmer and pump being changed.
