    Did the pc get wet when the diverter was changed?, the motor barely does anything noticable when demand is changed. A multimeter would help enormously here and again just make 100% sure that the spindle is correctly anchored to the motor.

    To be honest im not sure if the board did get. wet.The diverter valve was leaking quite badly when I had it changed,so it could have done something to the board.
    The motor doesnt do much only buzzes but my friend tried the diverter valve on somebody elses boiler and it moves the arm on the motor up and down and doesn't do anything apart from buzz when attached on my diverter valve,so that rules out the diverter valve.I also checked the loom from the valve going to the pcb,and thats fine too.
    I can only assume now it is the pcb like my friend said.
