10 Fault finding and diagnosis
This fault finding information is for guidance only. Worcester cannot be
held responsible for costs incurred by persons not deemed to be
competent.
This fault finding system assumes that the appliance has been operating
normally until the time of failure (i.e. not a first time installation error).
Basic checks
• Ensure that there is 230V power supply and the polarity is correct to
the appliance.
• Ensure that the appliance settings and functionality is correct.
• Ensure the CH programmer/timer is functioning.
• Ensure the room thermostat is functioning.
• Ensure the primary system has adequate pressure/system content
for the system type.
• Ensure there is gas to the appliance?
– Are other gas appliances working, gas cooker/hob for example?
– Has the credit run out on the gas pre-payment meter?
NOTICE:
On completion of the Service/Fault-Finding task which has required the
breaking and remaking of electrical connections, check:
▶ Earth continuity,
▶ Short circuit check,
▶ Polarity
▶ Resistance to earth.
