Wolf boilers

[EPH]

First time on here gents so go easy!

Turned up to a lovely Wolf combi today never seeing one before. Emailed the manufacturers in Germany, does anyone have experience or any fault finding info on these?

There has been a couple of threads about this boiler I think Gasman and Diamondgas helped out

 

[diamondgas]

Never seen one personally but have access to some mi's ... There has been one or two threads regards faults ... is there a problem with the one you've seen?

Yeah the pump runs constantly with no demand and keeps going into reset after about 30 seconds.
The fan shows no sign of life but didn't want to go in there blind and just start changing parts.
Poor that there's no UK support, very strange choice of boiler to install.

EPH, I haven't got a clue who retails them, however it does sound like the fan is a gonna! Do you know what model it is?

 

[diamondgas]

If the pump runs constant maybe the model in question has a pre-heat, if it's a combi, for the plate heatx?

This was the previous thread http://www.ukplumbersforums.co.uk/gas-safety-register-forum/21111-wolf-cgb-boiler-no-spark.html if it's of any help?

It's a CGB-K-24

Pump runs then when I expect the fan to kick in it locks out.

Not 100% sure wether board or fan at fault so thought I'd get the full low down before I started chargeable work on it.

Looks a bit like a Worcester 24i junior in pre production stages almost. It's only 3 years old, why out here in the middle of no where somebody would fit something so obscure is beyond me.

I'll check that thread now, thanks.

It is very similar to the vitodenz and Worcester ... Check to see if it has the none return flap in the mixing chamber! They're prone to sticking and a bit of talc can cure the problem!

Good lord, we still talking about boilers doc??!????

Thanks, I'll go armed with as much info thanks and there may be a chance the property has been empty awhile too so that would make sense if it has.
