Mend Potterton Envoy 80NG Boiler Sensor Circuit Board

Potterton Envoy 80 working erratically?

My boiler, a Potterton Envoy 80NG, would heat up but there was no certainty that it would remain hot. I fiddled with the dry fire sensor and that seemed to have cured the problem. Problem returned after 2/3 weeks so I had the sensor replaced. That was 3 weeks ago but the problem has returned. Fiddling with the sensor as before has brought the heat back up. I suspect the electronics. Can I get information on the printed circuit board used.

My Potterton Envoy 80 works errartically also. Mine fails to fire up quite frequently and we are always having British Gas out to fix it. My wife says they say its somerthing to do eith the flue. I looked at the diagnostic message today and it kept showing 'F' indicating there was low gas pressure. This seems to fit with the ongoing failures as the pilot light fires up but it doenst hold the flame (andf then keeps firing for the cycle of four and then times out 't'.
Any ideas anyone
