When the timer on the controller gives a run signal, the pump runs but there is no heat to the rads or hot water tank. The boiler hasn't lit because the pilot has gone out. I have gone through the "light the boiler pilot" instructions religiously and the pilot will light, yet when I slowly release the grey button after 30 seconds, the pilot light goes out right at the end of the grey button's travel. I have tried turning the grey buton to the right and releasing it as insructed, but when I try to light the pilot again after 3/4 minutes, the same thing happens. It's almost as if the grey button is being allowed to travel outwards just a fraction too far which is cutting off the gas supply to the pilot light. Can the grey button be adjusted or will it require a replacement? If not that, what else could it be? Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
