I know this has probably been covered before but just want to check before I condemn the thermostat. Daughter has bought a house with a British Gas RC Plus wireless thermostat. Although we couldn't get it to do exactly what we wanted it was working. But we had to drop the power to the boiler and when it came back up the thermostat started showing E16 which I understand is a communication error. I have followed the instructions I have found to re-establish communication (turning off, then back on, pressing button 2 then both 1 and 2 on the receiver, placing the receiver and thermostat within a meter) many times with no success. The receiver allows me to manually overide and switch the heating on but the alarm light constantly shows red. I've about resigned myself to getting a new one unless anyone can suggest anything. Also any suggestions of what to replace it with? She's on a budget and it's a combi boiler.
Thank you.
Thank you.
