SIME Boilers + British Gas Homecare - ARRRGGGH!!!!

[gfurmidge]

Problems all week- culminating in a complete stop today

British Gas Homecare have been out 4 times and still no decent diagnosis.

Does anyone have any idea about error codes on Sime Boilers!!!

It is about to be set alight to give us some warmth....

My P*ss would be boiling if there was anyway to get close to the temperature needed.

Could do with a bit more information to even hazard a guess.

May be able to help, not promising anything though! Have you got more details ie model and error its showing?

Thanks for the responses

All I can determine from the Model numbers is it is a Sime Logica

Basically, the system works for a short while, then the thermostat shows errors alternating between ERR 90, Err 16 and sometimes ERR 193.

it seems the system tries to work - then reaches a limit, has to turn it self off, before it can carry on - unfortunately it doesn't work long enough to get the house anywhere near warm

Thanks in advance

I've heard such bad reports about British Gas service recently I honestly don't know where to start...

Yes - 4 engineers all diagnosing and replacing different parts - none of which have actually fixed it.

I have managed to dig out the manual - and luckily, I can reconcile the error codes to the problem, which British Gas seem unable to.

I am about to phone them and express my dissatisfaction AGAIN!

Thanks for all reponses
