First my fully serviced exchange modules are £66 including postage!, second I send hundreds out and near all are fitted by owners. That's because the module is very simple to change near on impossible to get wrong and only takes five minutes. Infact following advice sent with the module you will fit it correctly, something you don't get with a new one!!!

But, I was suggesting you brought alone your module for service which is not the same as above, providing it responds to this then the cost will be very much less.

Gas/12v mean gas electronically controlled by 12v and not heated by 12v. As for an exchange gas/electric model, you missed the boat this morning as a dealer bought the only one I had...a Derby dealer as it happens!!

changing the burner modual will not cure it if the fault lies in the controll box or even a faulty controll cable both of which i have encountered many times. but as gary says it is 95% of the time the modual

Blimey that's odd!! any chance of emailing a picture or two before you ring on Monday? Also remove the outer plastic flue cover and see if you have an inner alloy heat shield covering the burner?

P.S, I'm away on dial up at weekends so don't send any pictures until after tea Sunday
