It is not advisable to measure at the smaller P.C.B. connections such as the Electronic Gas Valve as the voltages need to be
taken from the actual edge connector on the board and damage could easily occur.
Water Temperature Sensors
All the sensors use the same resistance/ temperature measurements.
The graph below can be used to establish an approximate measurement, but the important point is to ensure the resistance
reduces as temperature increases.

Sensors
Both C.H. & D.H.W. sensors have the same resistance. The Heat Exchanger sensor has a different curve, but the
temperature/resistance curve is the same.
A further check can be made using the Information Menu as described on page 16. Even if the boiler is not operating the
temperatures can still be read in the Information Menu making it possible to check if a sensor is reading correctly.
