Was that the only word you uttered?I'm trying to trace a draft in the house - cold air pouring through the floor in the bedrooms. So there's a 'lean-to' extension against the side of the house and pipes coming from it through the skirting in my room - eureka!
Can of foam bought, all the gear on, rechargeable work light etc - sorted. Open up the hatch - get covered in crap - Yorkshire stone flagged roof.
Joists totally covered in insulation.
Go and get some planks to use as crawl boards, get up in the roof can see the culprit at the far end of the crawl space.
Light dies...
Didn't recharge it first as it showed full battery, apparently the battery lights on the side only reflect the amount of charge when plugged in...
ARSE!
Control panel worked fine until one of the plastic tubes disintegrated inside a hose. Putting a capless bulb into the connectors works as it should, light stays on on cold, light pulses in the middle, and is off on hot. So the panel is sending the right instructions down the wire to the valve, but its just not responding. As I said no issues at all until it was swapped, literally nothing has changed but the valve.I've fitted a few of those, mate ...... Never had any go bad .... and certainly not a whole batch of them. You sure your panel controllers are fine?
Bleep, Bleep, bleepity bleep, bleeping bleep day!
Please don't beeping ask!
Anyway how are you all?

It surely cannot be another faulty valve, but yeah the panel is sending all the right signals as it should... Been scratching my head on it for ages!
Frustrating, isn't it? Next step is pull it off, see if it opens and shuts while not in situ. Euro car parts will be sick of me before long!Interesting ....... and baffling ........ You're right ...... it should be working. That's one of those problems that I hate to have ....... but at the same time, can't keep my teeth out of
Some knob-cheeses on the roads these days. Hope everything gets sorted on with the insurance mate!Some utter cockwomble wiped out my bike and my wife's car last night. Both parked outside our house. Bike is probably a write off and car pretty banged up. Not impressed.
