00:00:00.030 okay so here we are today on a globe 00:00:04.22000:00:04.230 Optima the issue with this boiler is 00:00:08.12000:00:08.130 apparently they will apparently a little 00:00:14.74900:00:14.759 light a pilot here's the fan can hear it 00:00:21.29000:00:21.300 spoken 00:00:30.92000:00:30.930 there's news since we lighting the pilot 00:00:33.36000:00:33.370 now so maybe the engine is left the gas 00:00:34.89000:00:34.900 off let's have a look at that move this 00:00:43.13000:00:43.140 is the layout electronics and that's why 00:00:51.69000:00:51.700 yeah the engineer has left the gas 00:00:53.16000:00:53.170 turned off to this applauds 00:01:17.02900:01:17.039 I mean I've even seen this forget in the 00:01:18.67900:01:18.689 pilot right now 00:01:26.73900:01:26.749 spark doesn't seems to be fantastic 00:01:28.71900:01:28.729 either unless he won't be got to the gas 00:01:33.30900:01:33.319 valve that's the next thing Sao Paulo 00:01:38.46900:01:38.479 solenoid will be1 there's the first one 00:01:41.46900:01:41.479 from the isolation point so that we file 00:01:45.27900:01:45.289 that's not anointed so we check that 00:01:46.48000:01:46.490 first is apparently the pilot does like 00:01:49.52900:01:49.539 and then the boiler won't either main 00:01:52.77900:01:52.789 main burner so just listen we'll use 00:01:55.92900:01:55.939 this one or a diagram to figure out what 00:01:58.59900:01:58.609 we should be testing for the pilot on 00:02:00.60900:02:00.619 Android that's the first thing we do 00:02:04.10900:02:04.119 right okay so here we have the you gauge 00:02:08.41000:02:08.420 tree sap on the inlet pressure and we've 00:02:16.08900:02:16.099 determined that the point B needs to 00:02:17.65000:02:17.660 test is in there hold on it's there you 00:02:23.02000:02:23.030 can see it's it's G V 2 n + g v1 so that 00:02:27.30900:02:27.319 could quite simply means we've got one 00:02:31.69000:02:31.700 neutral and the two lives okay so the 00:02:37.47900:02:37.489 live we want for the pilot solenoid we 00:02:39.61000:02:39.620 look here the v1 is closest to the gas 00:02:46.21000:02:46.220 oh that must be the pilot solenoid 00:02:48.19000:02:48.200 and once that's established it then 00:02:50.34900:02:50.359 opens the second solid here for the main 00:02:53.19900:02:53.209 burner so if we need to test that 00:02:56.90900:02:56.919 gb1 there that brown wire is getting 240 00:03:01.05900:03:01.069 volts when it's sparking so that's the 00:03:05.14000:03:05.150 very first thing we do okay so here we 00:03:08.40900:03:08.419 are I'm running on the system I can hear 00:03:11.71000:03:11.720 it but our test points across live and 00:03:16.33000:03:16.340 neutral in there if I get in focus there 00:03:19.99000:03:20.000 you go 00:03:20.58900:03:20.599 I was just waiting for the fan to run in 00:03:24.58000:03:24.590 it just on spot 00:03:28.73000:03:28.740 oh it's an honest town 00:03:39.80900:03:39.819 look voluminous I know homes done by 00:03:46.58900:03:46.599 leaving on the DC and putting on AC so 00:03:49.44000:03:49.450 I'll use the fluke as you can see there 00:03:53.95900:03:53.969 have 240 across there when it's run 00:03:56.61000:03:56.620 alike the pilot pilots not lighting so 00:03:59.49000:03:59.500 we either have no gas a bad spot the 00:04:04.80000:04:04.810 inlet pressure is good drain is stable 00:04:09.94900:04:09.959 the voltage is stapled to the gas valve 00:04:12.94900:04:12.959 so now all we can have is some sort of 00:04:15.78000:04:15.790 blockage or a poor spark the spot 00:04:19.56000:04:19.570 doesn't look particularly good to me so 00:04:21.27000:04:21.280 that's something to look at right now 00:04:27.37900:04:27.389 actually before I look at the spark 00:04:29.40000:04:29.410 Wilders proved to pilots or Lloyd is 00:04:31.20000:04:31.210 actually opening to prove to that 00:04:34.12900:04:34.139 mechanically is opening up so I know 00:04:36.45000:04:36.460 electrically it should be I'm gonna 00:04:39.87000:04:39.880 prove mechanically is the way I do that 00:04:43.74000:04:43.750 is 00:04:56.42000:04:56.430 I'm gonna turn this off we should see 00:04:58.89000:04:58.900 this drop and it does so that's a good 00:05:04.17000:05:04.180 indication to pilots on road is opening 00:05:09.89000:05:09.900 so I'll do let me turn this off turn 00:05:15.99000:05:16.000 this back on and off and it holds 00:05:20.46000:05:20.470 pressure so the pilot solenoid is 00:05:23.04000:05:23.050 definitely opening but we're not getting 00:05:24.51000:05:24.520 a pilot right now so let's investigate 00:05:27.57000:05:27.580 that 00:05:29.81000:05:29.820 okay so I've just taken the case off and 00:05:33.35000:05:33.360 I'll always check the case seal will not 00:05:36.62900:05:36.639 first take it off have beginning the job 00:05:38.96900:05:38.979 when you remember sir every time I 00:05:40.35000:05:40.360 remove a combustion chamber cover I'll 00:05:43.05000:05:43.060 take a case sill to make sure it's okay 00:05:45.27000:05:45.280 and this one is absolutely fine all the 00:05:47.31000:05:47.320 way around they often get damaged right 00:05:50.33900:05:50.349 here where all the HTT lead I'll 00:05:53.15900:05:53.169 actually even all that part this one's 00:05:55.14000:05:55.150 still worse and sponging is all in place 00:05:56.73000:05:56.740 I said now I'm gonna check that spot 00:06:16.81000:06:16.820 seems that apparently we know the pilot 00:06:20.83000:06:20.840 solenoid is something so I'm gonna now 00:06:22.54000:06:22.550 check the pilot injects on this 00:06:27.00000:06:27.010 it's odd feet six it doesn't always pick 00:06:29.83000:06:29.840 up every spot on the phone I can see its 00:06:33.55000:06:33.560 bark every single on the phone like this 00:06:38.41000:06:38.420 that one never 00:06:39.25000:06:39.260 so the is barking fine it's just a frame 00:06:42.43000:06:42.440 it of fun good pick you up so that looks 00:06:49.36000:06:49.370 okay let's find out why there's no guest 00:06:51.13000:06:51.140 coming for it 00:06:52.95000:06:52.960 okay so here's the pilot assembly with 00:06:58.63000:06:58.640 Dean Jets filled with electrodes removed 00:07:01.24000:07:01.250 and you know a for the indirect side to 00:07:10.93000:07:10.940 hole injects up and why you see if it's 00:07:14.83000:07:14.840 blocked or the way I see this block see 00:07:17.98000:07:17.990 it's like this that's what I'm going to 00:07:20.59000:07:20.600 focus in there this one looks okay you 00:07:24.85000:07:24.860 can see through that they sort just give 00:07:29.35000:07:29.360 that clean never do with it's all so 00:07:33.67000:07:33.680 they are much better quite well define 00:07:44.95000:07:44.960 now so that's definitely not going to be 00:07:48.28000:07:48.290 the problem I'll do a side-by-side 00:07:51.25000:07:51.260 comparison that that does look clearer 00:07:53.47000:07:53.480 to me so let's clean up the pilot now 00:07:59.32000:07:59.330 with a wire brush for a sparking 00:08:01.27000:08:01.280 purposes and I'll take out apology and 00:08:03.82000:08:03.830 blow through it side by side this no and 00:08:09.22000:08:09.230 day when you look at them it's really 00:08:10.69000:08:10.700 obvious which one's clean and that's not 00:08:14.20000:08:14.210 three minute now that's just cleaning it 00:08:16.15000:08:16.160 out so here's the old pilot assembly 00:08:20.98000:08:20.990 just before I cleaned it and a few 00:08:23.98000:08:23.990 minutes of a wire brush and it comes up 00:08:26.17000:08:26.180 good as new like that so there's no way 00:08:28.87000:08:28.880 as far um 00:08:30.18900:08:30.199 to that and be nice and clean so 00:08:36.54000:08:36.550 obviously clean the electrode okay so 00:08:41.40900:08:41.419 this pilot truth is all clear and clean 00:08:43.50900:08:43.519 and I always had just a tiny tiny bit of 00:08:48.32900:08:48.339 paste to these olives not for sealing 00:08:52.56900:08:52.579 purposes I just had a tiny bit by 00:08:57.22000:08:57.230 defenders of this no it's not for 00:08:58.87000:08:58.880 sealing what it does is it gives you 00:09:00.28000:09:00.290 like a M as you tighten it up it helps 00:09:05.71000:09:05.720 it makes tightening up that these tiny 00:09:07.87000:09:07.880 fin is nice and smooth so you actually 00:09:09.67000:09:09.680 get a feel for how tight they are rather 00:09:11.68000:09:11.690 than as you're tightening it it's very 00:09:13.68900:09:13.699 crunchy and buying into itself that it 00:09:16.75000:09:16.760 allows it's not smooth and you know how 00:09:18.69900:09:18.709 you're getting this you never over 00:09:20.17000:09:20.180 tighten things I think that one radiator 00:09:22.36000:09:22.370 valves as well it just allowed any olive 00:09:25.90000:09:25.910 it just allows for smooth tightening 00:09:27.93900:09:27.949 which helps you understand how much 00:09:29.17000:09:29.180 torque your burned into it 00:09:32.57900:09:32.589 okay CC woven by light : very very for 00:09:39.79000:09:39.800 encoding toothpaste on these 00:09:53.79000:09:53.800 say very fine kinda paste also make sure 00:10:01.01900:10:01.029 you always clean this probably a boy 00:10:03.62900:10:03.639 here see if you don't do that you get 00:10:05.87900:10:05.889 very poor pilot so that's basically done 00:10:10.49900:10:10.509 good okay make sure you do that that's 00:10:22.82900:10:22.839 one nice clean toilets he'll be with a 00:10:26.18900:10:26.199 long clean ejector so we're starting 00:10:28.25900:10:28.269 from the white points down this is just 00:10:31.59000:10:31.600 a pod at two points at Stone it's the 00:10:33.80900:10:33.819 only thing it can be is adjusting the 00:10:35.18900:10:35.199 pilot on the gas valve just looking down 00:10:38.60900:10:38.619 the pilot orifice on the gas valve there 00:10:43.75900:10:43.769 everything looks good in there can't see 00:10:47.42900:10:47.439 any problems with that 00:10:49.54900:10:49.559 so I think now we're gonna get pilot so 00:10:54.98900:10:54.999 let's go clean the back in as you can 00:10:57.66000:10:57.670 turn on the pump runs see what happens 00:11:01.16900:11:01.179 now 00:11:09.11000:11:09.120 [Music] 00:11:13.36000:11:13.370 that's good 00:11:29.12900:11:29.139 straightaway first time to see ya 00:11:32.82000:11:32.830 maybe stray away 00:11:39.22000:11:39.230 what did that steak 00:11:41.00000:11:41.010 cleanup line up straight away first time 00:11:49.73000:11:49.740 so what I'm gonna do now for a sec right 00:11:56.18000:11:56.190 right so I'm gonna do now now that we 00:11:59.81000:11:59.820 know the boiler works 00:12:00.77000:12:00.780 actually let me straight out on white 00:12:02.45000:12:02.460 one last time 00:12:10.65000:12:10.66000:12:18.89000:12:18.900 destroy your life 00:12:25.68000:12:25.690 straightaway 00:12:32.55000:12:32.560 straightaway see so now we know this 00:12:39.06900:12:39.079 products 00:12:42.11900:12:42.129 no no we've got this work in we're gonna 00:12:44.41000:12:44.420 put all of this sort of things pile and 00:12:46.42000:12:46.430 all that back together by the way you 00:12:48.42900:12:48.439 can see if you leak detection of food 00:12:49.62900:12:49.639 dripping off that I had LDF on that so 00:12:52.05900:12:52.069 make sure as soon as that let there was 00:12:53.41000:12:53.420 no leaks because these away he always 00:12:55.17900:12:55.189 leave gas leaks on these tiny little 00:12:57.63900:12:57.649 fins hence why I pasted them so when 00:13:00.28000:13:00.290 I'll tighten them up it's lovely and 00:13:01.48000:13:01.490 smooth and ODF on some tests and 00:13:04.36000:13:04.370 restrain away and as you can see they 00:13:05.94900:13:05.959 were fine no bubbles on there so we'll 00:13:08.65000:13:08.660 get these back together but the man the 00:13:11.29000:13:11.300 three take for the whole chili just 00:13:15.10000:13:15.110 protects it gets all the sharp edges 00:13:16.50900:13:16.519 death get its back together and now 00:13:19.26900:13:19.279 we're gonna set up this gas fail because 00:13:20.61900:13:20.629 this gas valve was just fitted it hasn't 00:13:23.47000:13:23.480 been set up so sell the gas valve burner 00:13:26.29000:13:26.300 pressures on here see if we need to set 00:13:29.74000:13:29.750 off the step function which the step 00:13:34.60000:13:34.610 function is is it on this gas valve no 00:13:40.90000:13:40.910 it isn't okay so on some of them see 00:13:43.99000:13:44.000 what it says step here there'll be a 00:13:45.28000:13:45.290 step function there and what that is is 00:13:47.07900:13:47.089 the soft light on the gas valve so if 00:13:50.71000:13:50.720 you have one of the bigger boil is it 00:13:51.93900:13:51.949 definitely has the step function and 00:13:53.92000:13:53.930 what that does is that controls the ramp 00:13:57.22000:13:57.230 up from when the pilot lights to main 00:14:00.91000:14:00.920 flame and if you have that set wrong 00:14:02.92000:14:02.930 these arrived a bit of a boom so on this 00:14:05.55900:14:05.569 one here as you can see it doesn't have 00:14:07.21000:14:07.220 it so we don't need to do that so I'll 00:14:10.68900:14:10.699 just get it back together and do some 00:14:12.49000:14:12.500 more tests to make sure it's all safe 00:14:14.88900:14:14.899 and everything else 00:15:05.10000:15:05.110 okay south sixteen mill it's minutes 00:15:09.07000:15:09.080 before I know it's mid speed ten point a 00:15:15.30000:15:15.310 so to adjust the burner pressure on 00:15:18.16000:15:18.170 these is label tablespoon off on the nut 00:15:24.82000:15:24.830 underneath that black cap back there 00:15:26.95000:15:26.960 okay so I'll remove that and then I'll 00:15:29.08000:15:29.090 show you your labels hello 00:15:39.36000:15:39.370 Smallville because I don't know what why 00:15:41.47000:15:41.480 that's meant to turn now can't actually 00:15:48.01000:15:48.020 see on it I'm just gonna turn in one 00:15:50.29000:15:50.300 direction and see if it makes a 00:15:51.64000:15:51.650 difference so I'm gonna turn it 00:15:56.58000:15:56.590 clockwise and then I'm gonna try and 00:16:01.36000:16:01.370 leave my spanner on there so that's made 00:16:03.70000:16:03.710 it higher I can just adjust it straight 00:16:05.68000:16:05.690 back 00:16:11.97000:16:11.98000:16:14.40000:16:14.410 still 16 we'll try another officer 00:16:38.04000:16:38.050 lower okay so now you're a good twist 00:16:42.19900:16:42.209 add a 15 now all team 00:16:54.59000:16:54.600 well alright points always tell me one

you will be quite quick 00:17:22.31900:17:22.329 because you're on the board that's why 00:17:23.42900:17:23.439 the heat and it will burn in a 16 minute 00:17:26.69900:17:26.709 bar so as I just how vicious it is 00:17:30.18000:17:30.190 changing that is a hot behind pressure 00:17:40.90900:17:40.919 ten point eight so I've set that sir 00:17:44.10000:17:44.110 seven point five we'll give it a

00:18:04.29900:18:04.309 you can see as creeping up as it warms 00:18:07.77900:18:07.789 up must always remember that the boater 00:18:12.22000:18:12.230 pressure will rise on one of these ones 00:18:15.00900:18:15.019 that actually specify heart but birth 00:18:16.89900:18:16.909 pressure rises there was so slightly 00:18:18.89900:18:18.909 they specify it's hot when they take a 00:18:21.51900:18:21.529 badge here you go don't hop burden 00:18:28.09000:18:28.100 pressure have a point night 00:18:46.41000:18:46.420 hope you say 00:18:48.70000:18:48.710 I'm tested all of joints you if you 00:18:51.40000:18:51.410 would interfere with one changing the 00:18:52.84000:18:52.850 gas valve so all these you know flat 00:18:55.72000:18:55.730 seals here or there o-rings in there but 00:18:58.54000:18:58.550 I've just checked all of that with leads 00:18:59.80000:18:59.810 to actual fluid and on the inlet 00:19:05.43000:19:05.440 analyzer time there we are 00:19:21.02000:19:21.030 seems pretty stable 00:19:26.54000:19:26.550 that is brilliant anybody ever lead set 00:19:31.19000:19:31.200 the last couple of joints and we are 00:19:34.37000:19:34.380
