Went to a breakdown (?) - the customer complained that the dhw gets really hot and then turn cold on a combi. Initial thought was overheat stat or dhw thermistor. Tried to simulate the problem by turning on various taps but the problem never repeat while I am there, although the customer insisted that the problem happens to him all the time. Was going to take out my multimeter but since the problem didn't happen the customer didn't want to pay. Got the impression that he's trying to avoid paying if he can get away with it - prob just want me to do the diagnostic and tell him the problem then prob try to fix it himself. I left the job.
The other day, a customer wanted me to help him fit a gas hob. Got there he said his DIY mate did some of the pipe work but want me to connect up the hob at some stage when the building work complete. Never mentioned this before i got there. Anyway while I am there he said is it possible that I can quickly do a tightness test for him. Since this only take 5 mins I did this as a gesture with the hope that I will get the job. I didn't get the job.
What am I doing wrong?
