FAQs
Is this part new or refurbished?
This Glowworm PCB (0020061654) is a refurbished part. It has been restored to a working condition but may show signs of previous use.
Which boiler models does this PCB fit?
This PCB is compatible with the Glowworm Betacom 24C and Glowworm Betacom 30C boiler models.
Can I install this PCB myself?
No, installation must be performed by a qualified Gas Safe registered engineer due to the electrical and safety risks involved.
What is the main function of a PCB in a boiler?
The PCB is the central control unit. It monitors all boiler functions via sensors and switches, controls ignition and burner operation, and manages safety shutdowns if faults are detected.
How do I know if my boiler needs a new PCB?
Symptoms can include the boiler not firing, intermittent operation, error codes displayed on the boiler's panel, or unexpected shutdowns. A professional diagnosis is required to confirm.
What are the risks of a faulty PCB?
A faulty PCB can lead to inconsistent heating, loss of hot water, or failure of safety mechanisms, potentially causing damage to the boiler or posing safety risks. It is essential to replace a faulty PCB promptly.
Does a refurbished PCB come with a warranty?
Warranty information for refurbished parts typically varies by supplier. Please check the specific warranty terms provided by the retailer at the time of purchase.
Troubleshooting
Boiler not firing up or showing error codes
This could indicate a fault with the PCB or its connected sensors/switches. A Gas Safe engineer should diagnose if the PCB is receiving power, if it's communicating with other components, and if it's sending the correct signals. It may require replacement.
Intermittent heating or hot water supply
The PCB might be malfunctioning or receiving faulty signals from sensors. An engineer can test sensor readings and PCB outputs to determine if the PCB needs replacing.
Boiler shutting down unexpectedly
The PCB's safety functions may be triggering due to a detected fault (e.g., high pressure, low water). An engineer should investigate the underlying cause of the fault and check if the PCB is correctly interpreting system data.
No response when thermostat is turned on
Verify thermostat batteries and settings. If the thermostat is functioning, the issue might be with the wiring connection to the PCB or the PCB itself failing to recognize the demand signal. Requires professional diagnosis.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This PCB is specifically designed for the Glowworm Betacom 24C and Glowworm Betacom 30C boiler models. Ensure your boiler model matches these specifications before installation.
Setup: Installation of a PCB is a complex electrical procedure and should only be performed by a qualified Gas Safe registered engineer. Improper installation can lead to safety hazards and damage to the boiler. The engineer will safely disconnect power, access the boiler's internal components, remove the old PCB, install the new one, reconnect wiring, and perform necessary safety checks and system tests.
Care: PCBs are sensitive electronic components. Once installed, they require no direct user maintenance. However, ensure the boiler casing remains clean and free from dust and debris, as excessive buildup can affect internal component temperatures. Regular boiler servicing by a qualified engineer is recommended to ensure all components, including the PCB, are functioning optimally.
