Heating prob   
My heating only comes on when my cylinder calls for heat then shuts off when 
cylinder gets to temp. There is a 2 port valve on the heating that opens and 
closes with the room stat. I've tried a different programmer so its not 
that.
Help anyone.
Thanks

It sounds like you may have a S plan system.

Have a look at http://content.honeywell.com/uk/homes/systems.htm
to be sure.

If it is an S Plan then the micro switch in the heating 2 port valve has 
failed (or you are lucky then its may be a loose connection in the wiring 
pack)

You may be able to change the microswitch or just the head on the 2 port 
valve.
