Please help!-boiler power light flashing

lucywillow

Hi, Can anyone offer any help please. I have a Potterton Performa 24 Eco He combi boiler. Tonight when I got home the green power indicator is flashing and the boiler won't 'fire up'. The pressure was a bit low so I've repressurised it, switched the power off & tried the re-set button to no avail. The instruction manual is no help as it only mentions other combinations of flashing lights:( when there is a fault. Not the power indicator alone. Does anyone have experience of this or can offer any advice. I'm desperate & freezing and dreading christmas with no hot water or heating. Any help much appreciated. Thanks

Are you absolutely sure it is the green power on that is flashing? This should either be on or off and is not part of the fault indications.

You need the electrical supply checked to the boiler, or possibly the pcb.

Thank You for your reply. It's 100% the green power on indicator that is flashing. This is why I couldn't find the problem in the fault diagnosis in the manual. If it is the PCB how long would it take a heating engineer to fit one? Thanks for your help.

This time of year, anything up to 2 weeks, if you can find one. But it could be something very basic rather than the pcb.
