• knackered pump
• knackered heat exchanger(s)
• knackered temperature sensors
• knackered gas valve
• knackered by-pass valve
• knackered zone valve(s)
• knackered boiler
• knackered combustion fan

I think there’s a few promax HE’s, you’d need to be more specific.

What do you mean “spinning at night” isn’t the 24/2 a heat only?
Do you have a hot water tank?

Yes @Stu-B its heat only. Ok, @Dave69, so what is happening whilst it’s “spinning”? Any hot water being drawn off? Heating on? Hot water on? Nothing, just does it itself?

Sounds like the burner is cracked, I had one same recently, well it’s little brother the 15/2, was bad ignition and looked like it was trying to blast the cover off the chamber! Mine was attached to a heat store.
