How can i fix my Worcester Bosch 240 combi boiler?

I recently removed two downstairs radiators to decorate. When I tried to turn the heating system on again it wouldn't work, nor do i have any hot water. The boiler tries to fire up when you demand water but nothing happens. The power light remains on but the pressure on the boiler is at 0. Please help a freezing helpless lady in distress! Thank you

The temperature gauge on my 30CDi boiler shows 33 degrees. Why hasn't the boiler fired as it has a safety system for cold weather ?

if you do as steve said you cant go wrong.
Bear in mind that if your means of topping up the boiler pressure is by way of an external filling loop
(usually located under the boiler in the form of a flexible braided hose and a valve at either end) then you must remember that once the pressure gauge reads 1 to 1.5 bar (cold) you should close the valves and then disconnect the flexible braided hose as this is a requirement of the current water regulations.
Reason for this is that the filling loop incorporates a double check valve to ensure your heating water does not mix with your drinking water and in the event that the water main pressure droped for any reason i.e a burst main in the street, then the pressure from the heating water which is independant of mains pressure would force its way back through the dcv or as is more commonly known "upstream" of the dcv and thus contaminate your drinking water, so that is the reason why you should always disconnect the filling loop after topping up the boiler pressure.
Hope that explanation hepled

fill all radiators, and bleed. ignite pilot, pressure should be at about 2 bar by now, and you should have heating and water.

If the pressure gauge is showing zero then you must refill the heating system with the filler loop before the boiler will work, the filler loop will either be integrated into the boiler or will be a flexible hose under the boiler. Your user manual should identify it for you (if not go to http://www.worcester-bosch.co.uk who have loads of manuals on line) Untill the pressure gauge reads between 1 to 2.0 bar you will not get any heating or hot water.
If all else fails ring Worcesters help line on Tel: 08705 266 241
