Honeywell thermostat - zone 2 not kicking in

Hi,

We live in a two bed flat which was built in 2014. We went to put the heating on via our Honeywell thermostat over the weekend but no heating kicked in. I've gone to test it again today and again no heating.

We have two zones on our thermostat so I then put on zone 1 (which is the lounge) and the heating immediately kicked in and you could hear the boiler whirring.

When I turned off zone 1 and left on zone 2 (the bedroom), the boiler than turned back off.

Has anyone got any tips on how to overcome this issue? Our bedroom suffers from damp so we could do with having some heat to dry it out.

Many thanks in advance

probably the motorized valve.

there is a manual leaver on the side which would give you some warmth when zone 1 is on

We had awful problems with heating/hot water not coming on when by chance I stumbled across a plumbers' forum which indicated that there was a faulty batch of Honeywell timers. There is a way of finding the date of manufacture by pressing certain buttons and then you could check with Honeywell.

"just for your info there was a recall on these programmers due to this sort of fault, I had it with mine at home, if I set the hot water to come on 10mins before heating all was fine but didn't work if both set to same time, there is a way to find the date code with certain presses (or a sticker on the back), then ring Honeywell, ive had 4 different callout to the same problem in recent years and had 2 replaced under warranty and 2 not so defo worth a try.
hope this helps.

recalled codes 1037 - 1139

The "Date Code" for this device can be seen on the display if the '+' button is held for about 8 seconds. This is followed by a check sum number. The two numbers will alternate a few times before the display returns to normal"
