Hey @mario3 and @kamshafiq,

 

That's a strange issue you have there, let's look into it together. Does the screen turn orange when you call for heat? Do all 3 lights shows when you press the button on the Heat Link for Manual Mode?

 

Also, please go to the Heat Link, call for heat from the Nest app and listen for  a click. Afterwards, turn it off and listen again for a click. Do the same for the Hot Water boost and let me know if you hear a click.

Hi,

 

Thank you so much for the comments.

 

All 3 buttons light up green on the Heat Link.

No, to a click for central heating.

Yes, to a click for Hot Water - boiler then fires up.

Hey @kamshafiq,

 

Thank you for your response. If you don't hear a click, the issue might be a stuck relay. I'd suggest you contact an installer or a Nest Pro to have a look, and if he believes that the Heat Link is faulty, it would be best to call us while he's still there.

 

@mario3, based on what you're saying, the Nest system seems to be sending and receiving the commands, but if the boiler doesn't start, the issue might be with the rest of the heating system and could be the case of a stuck valve. I also recommend that you contact an installer or Nest Pro to have a look and give us a call while he's there, as we might need him to perform a continuity test if the rest of the system seems fine.

Hi, checked your instructions again about the 'click'.

 

Yes, when I turn on the central heating I DO hear a click from the Heatlink but nothing happens to the boiler.

 

PS Thank you so much for your help on this

Hi there. I'm just following up on our last message. Do you still need our help? Keep us posted. 
 

Hi Drago,

 

I have engaged a plumber to install a new boiler. Our current boiler is approx 17 years old. If had been working with the Nest up until a few weeks ago so I would imagine the wiring would be fine.

 

Many thanks

Hi there. I'm just following up on our last message. Do you still need our help? Keep us posted. We'll need a picture with the wiring to be sure it's connected properly and to rule out the possibility of a miswiring.
