Hi all - we recently had a problem with the above item causing an extremely loud vibration noise in the pipes which was waking the whole house (but otherwise working fine) and I was told we needed to replace it. I "went cheapskate" and bought one off ebay which had supposedly been sitting on a broken heating system for a year but was otherwise unused and wired it into the thermostat.
Now it seems that even with only the hot water set to come on the heating is coming on as well! The lever on the side is positioned underneath the "m" (on the "w m h" indicator). I really don't have a clue about how these things work but I'm guessing that this isn't a lever at all and is just supposed to move automatically depending on what the valve is doing?? Presumably it should be on "w" at the moment? At what point does the lever move into position? Is there anything you're supposed to do to reset it (or something) when you first install it? Or is it basically broken and I need to cough up for a properly "new" one...?
Thanks in advance for any help.
