having problems with my combi boiler

Options
Can anyone help me? My combi boiler only fires up when I put the timer on to heat the hot water. My central heating doesn't work. No heat to the radiators. As soon as I switch off the hot water, the flame goes out.

    Hi

    Your description is not very clear
    A combi will only heat hot water when you open a hot tap, there is no timer

    The c/h will have a timer ,

    Hi

    Thanks for your reply. I have a timer for both my hot water and central heating (Siemens). it has settings such as timer, programme, advance one hour etc. for the hot water and the c/h seperately.

    Hi

    Please post the make and model of boiler!!! as a combi cannot be used in conjunction with a programmer for hot water so I'm a bit baffled.
    Maybe it's a stored water one.?
