When switching on the CH, the boiler makes the usual noise but then does not fire up the burners for CH (pilot light is still visible though). My domestic hot water from the tap is okay though. Any thoughts on what the problem is and can i fix it?

hi my overflow keeps on leaking as soon as the heating comes on. I have changed the overflow valve and still leaking. DHW fine. Water works fine but need to top up with water to use heating.

Had this problem some years ago. The domestic hot water demand valve sticks and inhibits the central heating option. The plunger (which operates the micro switch) needs releasing then lubricate with a little oil. Its awkward to reach but nothing requires disconnecting. switch off first.
