fault code 23 is probably caused by blockage of 4-5 inch rubber return pipe to primary heat exchanger which you have to cut off and refit using jubilee clips. Main sympton : fluctuating hot/cold water. Check this link : http://www.ukplumbersforums.co.uk/central-heating-forum/6979-vaillant-ecomax-622-2e-fault-f-23-a.html - hope this helps - solved mine.
