When all the lights go out on your boiler ( ie. no led display ), but it still works completely ok, and still gives hot water, erm what's wrong.
I'm a bit baffled, anyone got any ideas, Alanthemanc

    Scared of touching it, it only happend when I switched the heating on when it went cold for a couple of days. I thought of the Fuse myself, but would it still be working if the Fuse went.... not sure. Alanthemanc

    Just asked OH and apparently on our boiler there are 2 little fuses at the back where the leds are, could be them.

    It sounds like a fuse problem to me ('cos I is such an expert on these things!) Bulbs need leccy to work and if the leccy ain't getting through then they won't work. Have a look on interweb, there must be some onfo out there about it. DD

    Dunno but it sounds like the thermocoupling isn't b*ggered. In my experience of plumbers talking at me, so long as that isn't the case, all will be well! I've no idea what it is.
    Hey little fighter, things will get brighter

    Thanks everyone,
    I don't think modern boilers have thermo couples anymore, I , like you lot, think it's a fuse problem. Alanthemanc
