I seek advice before I attempt what should be a very simple repair. My heater works only on the 500W setting and from what I have read my best solution is likely to replace the transformer and relays using a kit supplied by Apuljack - but how to get at it?
The PCB housing is at the bottom of the rear of the heater, underneath the housing for the fan which powers the blown air distribution system. It would be easy to remove this since it is held by only three screws, or detach it sufficiently to give me access to the PCB housing, save for one thing - a steel box extending backwards from the gas locker extends to within a millimetre or so of one of these screw heads! At first sight the only way of getting to the PCB housing would be to remove the heater entirely from the bottom of the wardrobe, something I think I would prefer to leave to the professionals except that it will be very costly: is it possible to just loosen/remove the screws holding the heater to the bodywork but without disconnecting the gas, and tilt it towards me by no more than, say 3 inches to give me access to this pesky screw. "Without disconnecting the gas" is the key part of this question!
