HI all just an update from the Ideal Logic 24 combi boiler problem i described the other day,of no hot water but central heating working fine.
Proved the diverter valve works, Proved the diverter valve head moves when called for from the central heating but not from the tap water call boiler does not fire when called for when hot taps turned on Thought maybe its the hot water flow turbine cartridge or sensor, or PCB?? found a downloadable manual from internet for this model in the fault finding section a flow chart leads me to the PCB if the sensor on the flow turbine is lit up by a red neon light, the light only flickers when hot water is called for so im not sure if its supposed to flicker or this is a fault light which the manual describes? any ideas boys would be greatly appreciated as i don't want to be buying all sorts of parts until i get the correct one Regards Willo

Hi Willo , If it's not your diverter valve causing the problem then it's an electrical / sensor fault , be careful on thinking it could be the PCB as this may not be at fault and is overly expensive to buy for this boiler , it is very difficult to diagnose an electrical fault if your not sure where to start looking and without being in front of the boiler with a multimeter it's difficult to try and advise you what to do next , i think you would be wise to get someone in who is familiar with that particular model and let them sort it out for you , it will work out cheaper for you to do this rather than taking a chance on buying parts and hoping . If however you still feel that it could be the PCB then there is a company called ADLINK in wembley who will do a part exchange PCB for you at half price of a new unit , check them online and you can remove and send them the PCB and they will send you a replacement reconditioned one next day , hope this helps.......

Don't know if this post is still relevant but the red light should be solid, a flickering light means the turbine is not spinning better changing both tho Hall effect & turbine while your there
