Combi boiler stops supply hot water after I swtiched off the main stopcock

Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 2.59 PM

When I changed the water tap washer today, I switched off the main water stopcock. Then the washing machine was on and might used hot waster from the boiler. Now when I turn the hot waster tap on, the boiler gas fire lights up for a few seconds, then off. As a result, there is not hot water. Can any expert advise me how to fix the problem? Many thanks.

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Has the water stopped running altogether from the tap? or is it running cold as a result of the boiler not firing up? If running cold and not firing the boiler then its an internal problem and you will require an engineer to attend.
