Love the 60 second fault finding clips. No faffing about. Concise and to the point. Great to see you back again PB. Hope you're well.

If you put the boiler name in the title, it might attract more searches, love your work PB

Can I add a little tip for everyone out there. I carry a few pieces of cable with crimps on each end, one with 2 male spade connectors, one with 2 female spade connectors and one with a male spade connector one end, and a female spade connector on the other. This has allowed me to get a 💯 secure connection when I’m by-passing switches to prove faults. Please remember to remove them though guys, you’re not helping the customer by leaving them in whilst you order a replacement. Years ago I got called to a nursing home. An electrician had gone there on a call out in the middle of the night 2 days before. He’d by-passed the surge protection and hadn’t gone back. They had a power surge and blew it blew everything. Everything with a PCB including the residents video recorders ( yes it was over 20 years ago 😂😂😂 ) got fried. I was there to order new boiler PCB’s. The engineer got slated for it, but I guarantee all he was trying to do was keep the heating on for those residents who feel the cold badly. He probably had more call outs and meant to go back, he just never got the time. For caring his name was dirt.

Can you bypass hot water thermistor?

@russellthomas9391 5 ай бұрын

That boiler throws up a fault code for a faulty water thermistor but to answer your question- by passing it won’t work as it’s a resistor and not a switch like the water pressure sensor

@PBPlumber 5 ай бұрын

No you can’t bypass a thermistor as it’s looking for a resistance value not a closed or open circuit

@twistandturn02 5 ай бұрын

Generally, a thermistor is usually around 11,00 ohms at room temp. You can test this with the ohms setting on your multimeter. If you have a spare, you can do the same as PB here and plug it in (not installed) to test without having to drain or isolate anything to see if the boiler fires. It'll probably immediately throw up a different fault because there's no temp increase but it's a quick and dirty way to prove the NTC is the issue.
