Heatline Conense Boiler issue.

Hi.
When i moved into my house 4 years ago i inherited a heatline condense combi-boiler.

All has been good with it until about a month ago, when i turned the switch to turn the heating on (finally got too cold for me.) it came on so i set the timer to come on in a morning and at night. And for a couple of days it was ok, but now it doesn't seem to want to come on. it tries but then the end LED starts flashing and i have no heating or hot water.

Have tried resetting it, to varied results, sometimes it'll come on straight away, but sometimes i'm stood there for half an hour. When it does eventually fire up it's ok for the day, but then the next morning the same again.

What could be wrong with my boiler????

Any ideas or advice welcome.
Thanks in advance.

    Not really enough to go on there. What's the pressure gauge showing? If low, have you tried repressurising it via the filling loop?
    What does the manual say that the flashing LED indicates-presumably a fault code of some sort?
    Model would help.

    Not sure what model it it as I have not got a manual for it. Will it say somewhere on it ??

    When its running the guage is as 2 bar and when its off its about 1.5 bar.

    The flashing light is telling me there is a fault with the burner ionisation probe or the gas supply.

    If you don't have a manual for it and don't know the make/model (usually marked on the front) then how do you know what the fault code is telling you?
    You've answered your own question-you need to get an RGI in to resolve the issue that is generating the fault code.

    Is it a Heatline Vizo ?

    The one in the property I'm renting is being scrapped because it's doing something similar :eek:

    Aparrently it's the "multi function control valve" that's gone on mine - part costs £200 or so alone - not worth it on a £350 boiler.
