We moved into a house with a Worcester Greenstar 24i Junior Combi Boiler about 18 months ago. I don’t know how long ago it was fitted but I believe it may have been put in by the council as part of a grant scheme so it may not have been too long ago.
What should I do if my Greenstar boiler is not working?

What does reset light do on Worcester Bosch Greenstar 28I?
When the CH is on the Boiler fires for about 10 seconds then goes off. After 30seconds or so it repeats the 10 second thing then goes off after doing this a couple of times, the reset light cones on. If I push the reset light the boiler appears to reset, but goes back to firing then going out again.
Why is the pressure on my Green Star 28I so low?
I set it to 1 bar and within an hour of the central heating coming on it has climbed to 2.75 bar at which point the prv operates and when the heating goes off the guage drops fairly quickly to zero again. I have read some comments about similar problems on this site. So I suspected the expansion vessel was at fault.

What to do if there is no water in a Worcester Bosch Green Star?
If there is no water, then you need to recharge the vessel, but first you need to ensure the water side is at zero pressure. You do this by bleeding a rad (takes time) or opening a draincock if you have one. You stop when water is no longer being ejected under pressure. Now pump up your vessel to 1 bar.
