On the vaillant if you reset the boiler you can press the top right to get the digital pressure gauge up and the pressure changes when the pump kicks in unless pump is stuck or the low pressure switch is blocked

Nice work. I, too, work as a maintenance engineer, and it's great to see other engineers take such pride in their work. With the baxi filter, you can take them out and clean them from my experience, and also, with the synchro motor, you can just replace the motor, and it can save a lot of time. Great video, though.
@advancedboilertraining
@advancedboilertraining Год назад
Yeah I’ve managed to take the filter out in the past but this one was like it was super glued it. It was much quicker/easier to change the whole valve

Where did you buy the cartridge tool from for the diverter valve ?
@olalekanoyedokun4494
@olalekanoyedokun4494 Год назад
On diverter valves, I always change them as they tend to leak again and that would save me from a recall. Not that expensive part
@advancedboilertraining

Yeah the cartridges aren’t worth the headache sometimes. Always depends on if you get good quality ones or cheap ones

Do you put sealant along with the Fibre washers? That Wiring Centre would have been the PERFECT time to use the Regin Block Connector, no way would I start removing wires in there. Amazed you didnta insta rip off the plastic from the Vaillant display, always do if i see them still on.

I've just done my ACS. On the training for track pipe, they said if you solder with the track pipe connected, the flux vapour can corrode the inside of the track pipe. Not sure if that's what happened here but maybe
@advancedboilertraining
@advancedboilertraining Год назад
Maybe!! Didn’t even think of that. It doesn’t help that I done the same thing😅 thanks for that Craig 👍

@elliotwilliams7421 Год назад
@@advancedboilertraining any from the TIS range, sure toolstation does them. Your pen proved voltage, not how much and it can't confirm your neutral. Better with voltage testers that show voltage, ac and dc and allows you to confirm a whole circuit via live to neutral

love the uploads, just one bit of advice, don't use that deathdriver to test for power.....as the only part stopping severe voltage shooting in you is the resistor, and they can fail. keep up the good work tho.
