Hello,

No further progress on this. I am not sure how to proceed except to try another 10C1 valve. But no-one on the forum has one and neither does eBay. Some recently sold on eBay though for crazy prices! And what if it is not the valve after all?

PS I think the UCH42 is nearly equivalent but has a different heater voltage. I have an ECH42 here, would it be worth trying to bodge this in for a second (with appropriate modifications to the heater chain) to see if this cures the problem? I also saw that the X118 is another equivalent, available from Langrex (thanks Station X).
