Chingy Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Help needed please. Woke up this morning to a clicking noise, and the heating was off. Turned out to be what this silver box which is what I think is an actuator???? (Pics below) Is this right? If I turn the heating off the clicking stops. On the side of the silver box thing is a sliding switch with two settings, it is on Automatic, if I move this to manual and hold it down the clicking stops and the pumps starts and the boiler fires up. The actuator?? pulls aways from where it is mounted on a 3 way valve and will do the same if it is on the pipe work or on in my hand. Any one got any ideas what I am looking at as can't get a plumber out till tues Can I just buy a new actuator push it on its mount and wire it up the same way it is currently wired which is into a chock block or is it something completely different. Any help will be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricky49 Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Just shown him the pic mate and he says it's the motorised valve. You can just change motor head or the whole thing but you have to get the same make that's fitted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
