  • In this episode I attend a strange fault on a Glowworm, manage to get it working but have no clue how! Followed by a overflowing toilet which I've been too before. Then onto installing a soakaway which had been installed incorrectly. And finally, last but not least...A exposed shower valve to replace..
    Thank you for your continued support!

    gloworm aka vaillant its probably the cable conections underneath. had villiant lads out who were blaming outside controllers. bad solder joins on main pcb. it's just them they get the boards made as cheap as they can. 3.56 ill let it run and see conclusion.

    Had a similar fault on a 600! Fascia was going blank when it was on the magnetic plate, turned out to be a fault with the PCB. Threw me for a loop as it only occurred after I fitted a new wireless receiver 🫣😂
