Worcester boilers

[gassman]

Is it just me or are these boilers a pain to service and repair.
Had to replace the PRV on a Junior greenstar 28i and it was a nightmare to replace. Even testing a GV the plugs are on the back so needed to be removed to check solenoids.
Does doing their training course help at all?
Would be good to here your opinions guys!

I hate the bloody things .

You can check the solenoids by the harness on the board... Newer valves have the solenoids on the front now!

Great boilers for earning money don't knock them they pay the mortgage

Apparently if you phone Worcester they will FaceTime you and show you how to replace the PRV without stripping everything out, anyone done this?

Nope. I have only changed a couple of these but each time I had to take the boiler off of the wall

I'd be intrigued with this as I have one to do that I've been putting off
