But experience (which the guy on this video obviously doesn’t have) is key to this fault. Because the 0.01% fault where it’s not the gas valve is the real question here.

Dont you put words into my mouth you cheeky fucker! 🖕🤣 I was thinking more along the lines of which actress would play the female lead, but I can see you're bored today "working from home" so I expect we'll get another snarky answer from you 😜 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter had the same fault codes on her Vaillant boiler and that definitely was the gas valve which was replaced by BG ................ judging by the amount of faults she has had, it strikes me that Vaillant seem to suffer from some major reliability issues ? Gas valves ain't what they used to be ................ I have just had to change a German Mertik Maxitrol on my flush mount gas fire as the pilot became intermittent and the motor got very noisy ...............

The trouble is other elements can give the same codes and it’s not the gas valve. And it’s not the pcb. This is where I’m just testing @jonnyswamp and his fault finding skills. There is no big climax to this thread, it’s more just highlighting that norm is not always the norm. GPSguru 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
