    ok i have the attached immersion set - up, night saver with an option to boost after for 2 hours or less

    the night saver works heats up the water, but the boost is not working

    i have replaced the thermostat for the boost (the top one)

    when the night saver is on the light is on on the board and u can hear it heating

    however when i turn on boost the light comes on but thats it.. water stays cold and there is no indication to say its kicking in even to try to heat the water , any suggestions

    (btw i have had so many iussues over the years with this system , elements replaced, countless thermostats and even the timer itself (the timer itself was replaced 2 weeks ago, but it was like for like , the cables clip in and out)

    any ideas or help :)

    there is usually a power switch for the boost and night time in the hot press

    see if its turns off there? i know i turn ours off by accident when taking out the hoover sometimes

    yes,thats it
    did you hear or feel a click
    it will take about 1 hour or so to notice any heat build up
