Got called yesterday, then customer called back and said don't worry the boilers working again.
(Transpired he had taken it apart and cleaned the flame rec probe the numpty).
Then I get called today, the boilers done it again.
I get there and the boilers working totally fine.
It’s a Main Combi 24 HE.
It's running fine for me, but customer says it goes to "Burner Failure" sometimes when running water.
I checked amongst other things,
the gas inlet and burner pressures (max/min)
The condensate trap and pipe work.
The micro amps on the flame rec probe (5 micro amps)
The thermistor was about 9K
Both inlet filters on the cold main
The fan's coil (310 ohms).
The diverter and pump proving microswitch.
I didn't check the venturi, and I have a suspicion that there may be a blockage in the plate HEX as there was a rattly sound as hot water was drawn off.
Really weird one though. It worked fine for me, I ran the hot tap for about 10 mins solid and no issue..
Anyone got anything to add to this list. I'm going to pop back tomorrow and take another look.
Hard to repair a working boiler!
Having a bit of a frustrating time with combi's this last few days. This is the second one that's left me scratching the head. Not good.
