Right sorry it's taken me a while to reply, I completely forgot I posted this.   The socket is for charging a PHEV and for lawnmower.  I am getting a Merc c350e which doesn't take long to charge as it doesn't have loads and loads of batteries, 2-3 hours off a standard socket. As wiring can be...

Hi, Not sure if this is the right area to be asking but just looking for a rough figure for some work. What would be the typical cost of installing, on it's own trip (I have one space left)....a double 13A socket, which will be located in the outside cupboard alongside the fuse board? It...

Sorry my reply is so late, been manic. I've located a switch for the boiler which has made things a lot easier! When switched off the pump goes off as expected. The valve....I push it into from auto to manual I couldn't tell whether there was a click from inside or from the lever touching the...

Thanks ProDave, i'll give that a listen tomorrow. Jamie

Is there any possibility it could be the programmer that is faulty?

Whoops.... definitely not the recommended way to move levers...

Hi Chaps. Some further info. The valve is a "V4073A Motorised Mid Position Valve" I have tried loving the lever about from Auto to Manual and Open but this doesn't seem to make any difference to the pump running, not sure if that means anything or not. Here is a photo of the junction box open...

I've updated my post so the picture of the pump and valve is now working, i'm not really sure which cable goes where, two go through the ceiling, I can have another look and see if I can tell which is which, will probably have to pull the whole boiler apart as the wires disappear behind, was...

I shut off the power, disconnected the pump and put the power back on, the pump remained. The heating then came on (not intentional!) and after about 10 seconds the pipes starting clonking, so it didn't like the pump being off, I quickly shut it down. Power back off, pump reconnected, power...

Don't worry, I may be new to DIY and household electrics but I am a Broadcast Engineer, I don't go fiddling with stuff that's still live.

OK will test and let you know, many thanks. Jamie

Hi There, I'm Jamie, bought our first family house in September after owning our flat since 2006, didn't ever really do a lot of DIY in that place especially in the electrical area but having successfully changed all the mains sockets around the place, i'm starting to tinker here and there as...

I'm pretty sure it's been like this since we moved in (September this year) as I always could hear a noise when I was going to sleep and was thinking there must be something on even though the heating had not been on and it was only recently I went looking. There is a valve up in the airing...

Hi, My first post here but I have been reading other posts relating to Baxi Solo pump issues. I am trying to figure out if I have a faulty PCB or if it's just wired wrong. The pump runs all the time except when I shut off power to the boiler completely. Here is a photo of how things are...
