    It was the HEVAC after all

    Thats great news to get there in the end, I am thinking my Hevac is the fault too. I get control of the system for a while then one or both blenders stop responding to changes and of course book symbol but I have not actually done anything about it yet as I've just got a Series 2a that needs...
