LOGIC IDEAL 30 COMBI problem!

[jenoffee]

For two days, my combi boiler wont switch on the central heating. This is the first tine ice had any problrm in over 2 years since it was fitted.


When i switch on the central heating (in the winter mode if you are familiar with this boiler) it displays "PUMP OVERRUN" and then "FAN POST PURGE".


I have tried reset several tines, which the c/h does turn on but only for 5 minutes tops before them messages are displayed. I have also turned off via mains for 2-3 hrs too.


Ive checked the pressure which was under 1 and ive adjusted it to 1.4


Google seems to see this issue several times, but with my lack of gas/olumbing jargon, all i can seem to gather us that its normal, but not a fault !!

Surely theres something i can do to get my central heating on that i can do myself as with this time of year too, i think it will be difficukt to get hold of a plumber straight away without freezing my toes off!


Can anyone advise? I am currently off work for almost a year now due to illness so money is very tight. And id hate it if i was to call a plumber and pay maybe £50 or so if it only takes him 2 minutes to fix!


my ex husband used to deal with all this stuff, i guess i need to start learning sonetime!


Thanks for reading and any minor help will be appreciated!

Where is you room thermostat located, and what is it set at?

Also what is the stat set at on the boiler?

 

[ShaunCorbs]

Do you have plenty of hot water / does it fire and stay fired once hot tap open

Thank you guys for your quick replies

masood, i am assuming you mean the small box with the time and temperature settings on? its freestanding so i have it next to the boiler in the kitchen. Is usually at 21 and today i have been adjusting it from 15 to 30, leaving it as diffetent temps for an hour in between.

shyguy, im not sure what you mean by "on the boiler". I can adjust the temperatires of the water and heating on dials which is usually set at halfway point. I have adjusted these as well today.

shaun, the hot water is working fine. Except for one incident yesterday, i ran a bath and only realised once it was half full that the water was cold and had only just started to get hot. Before, the hot water was alwats instant.
