Ariston Boiler E 02 code, loss of pressure

[z4chris99]

my fking boiler is playing up.. its fine heating water, but when it comes to the rads it throws up E 02, which i read is loss of pressure.. no problem i thought ill just pump more water into the system..

but

whichever combination of the two taps from the water in and the rad system i cannot get the pressure valve to move.

any ideas?

Turn them both parallel with the valve bodies and play about with the braided hose, they usually kink and restrict the flow of water.

nada no worky...

maybe ill replace the hose tomorrow.. there is water coming out the right side as if you turn the little thingy it sprays out..

its on half a bar... on the edge of red and blue..
