cylinder thermostat connections

[farmer]

Hey guys go easy on Mr Farmer, he wants hot water to wash off all that Mud and stinky sh%t ! Unless he`s all arable then he will still need DHW on all that sweat.
Lets help him if we can ?
My first check would be;- verify the M/V synchron motor is working.
Mr farmer are you sure you know how to test the stat circuit ? You need to connect onto a neutral with one probe, the other probe can then check voltage on the stat terminals as shown in the diagram above.

Many thanks for your help Efficiencyman, I appreciate your honest answer.

I m actually a hardworking farmer and would like to try and diagnose the problem I have with my hot water before I actually get a plumber in.

I am disappointed at the abuse I received and will not post again. I apologise for the intrusion as clearly an outsider is not welcome here.

I hope Mr Farmer`s reply is read by all those who have made those negative remarks will go on a guilt trip, repent from the abuse but post in a helpful manner and abide by the rules, all too often the pointless wit needs to be curtailed with humility and self control.
Shame that the talented guys on here are let down by the few, can`t they see how ridiculous their behaviour is, trying to be --- ? ? ?.
The short sighted insults, probably from some who have never done a hard days work in the conditions that Mr Farmer has to do in his employment, should learn what it`s like to earn to less than half what the average plumber earns for even less hours than an average farm worker.
Mods. I hope this is not considered off topic but rather a rebuke, to clean up this forum.
P.S. I`m aware how important it is for DIY`ers who need to be warned about safety in their actions.

I tended to agree with you until Mr Farmers last post when he rather shot himself in the foot as it were (pun intended) No doubt he is hard working but not that hard that he can't afford time out to carry out some quite extensive research into his non functioning heating / hot water system so that he knows what is wrong before he calls a plumber, I don't think so.

I'm quite happy to speak from both sides of the fence having been raised in farming and trained in agriculture and now work in heating and plumbing and I for one would rather work in farming any day. The workload as a plumber is just as hard, if not more so and much less rewarding and although it may not be true for all farmers, the ones I grew up with and still know earn and live much better than any plumber I know. So no guilt trip from this poster at this time and it was tongue in cheek to someone who was probably never going to use a plumber until things went totally wrong. The only thing I dont do now is get up at 0445 to milk the cows, which was something I enjoyed doing, so much so I was relief milking for a local farmer 5 years ago, but am to busy to do now.
