What to do if your Riello burner wont fire?
Re-fit control box and fire up burner. If it fires after 12 secs and then locks out after 5 secs, the photocell is faulty. 2. Check resistance of the solenoid coil; blue and brown wires (1.47 kohms) and blue and black wires (1.4 Ohms) readings should be within 10% of these figures. If faulty then replace coil.
How to check the photocell on a Riello burner?
To check photocell, remove (disconnect) from control box. Re-fit control box and fire up burner. If it fires after 12 secs and then locks out after 5 secs, the photocell is faulty. 2.

Thanks all. Ran out of oil with our Riello RDB burner. Loosened allen screw on side of burner, bled for few minutes, then fired reset, closed allen screw and now working fine. loosen the nut on the oil pipe (where it comes into the pump) and tighten it when the oil appears.
What should the voltage be on a Riello burner?
Check voltage on white wire to terminal 7 of 530 SE control box. This should be 50V AC +/- 3 volts. If no voltage present, change burner motor. 4. As a last resort, change the control box 530SE.

Why is my Riello RDB oil boiler not firing?
Boiler dead could be several things, OH stat tripped, bearings gone on pump and/or burner motor so jammed. Water in oil line causing failure of pump. Control box failure. Its a Reillo RDB burner so parts readily available but cannot diagnose from pictures. Is it possible that constantly running oil has just been putting grit into the burner?
