Thats a shame several possibilities looks like a job for plumber to give definitive answer as need to see it operating before diagnosis :old:

No lights, or error codes. Basically the hot water works, but central heating wont come on when switched to ON, when put on TIMER it then works. When I knock it to OFF position it then stays on which then only way it goes off is to knock it of at main point???

When you setup the timer to a specific time on, then a specific time off, does it switch on & off correctly? If so, it sounds like your on/off switch is faulty.

The on/off switch is part of the timer control anyway so il just buy a new timer. Easy to change video on Youtube shows take cover off before unplugging timer and basically the oppossite to install. Cheers . Saves me a big plumber bill. :bluescarf: :lol:
