Worcester 35CDi domestic hot water... odd fault.....pcb?

F

GC number 4731139 (N.G.) Worcester 35 CDi

I am really scratching my head with this one! Firstly wherever I set the temp guage on the boiler for dhw it makes no difference not sure of the exact temp but it goes from hot to sometimes scalding hot - intermittent. If I try to run a bath the water starts to run cold after a while & then hot again in other words "Cycling" but I get more cold than hot!

I have replaced the DHW sensor - no change at all.

My theory is that the boiler is sensing an overheat situation on the dhw and that is why it is "Cycling" BUT is it doing that because a pot on the control board is stuck on full (Which would explain why moving the dhw temp dial has no effect)

Any thoughts before I shell out on a PCB? Grateful thanx in eager anticipation 😉

P.S. I repair domestic appliances not boilers but this is my own :-(

THIS......you will love! After several months of the hot water cycling again I did as you said Diamondgas, I checked that spindle and then thought I will just have to change the pcb.....I did that yesterday and guess what? No you don't eevne need to do you? But anyway you are right lol ....The furkin' thing is still exactly the same.

I am determined that it is fixable BUt I am now completely at a loss to explain the cause of this crazy fault:20:

If I am not certain and suspect a major part but can not prove it after speaking to worcester technical then I usually refer it to them as they will come out for £215 including vat and if it is less than 10 years old then they will persist until it is fixed.
Better than forking out hundereds on parts that you arn't sure about and the customer will appreciate your honesty.
