My Wega has started acting funny intermittantly. Every once in a while the pump starts up and goes and goes and goes, until it eventually trips something and the pump and the boiler shut off, or I shut it off myself for a while. Any thoughts ideas. Also any ideas on where to get a new drip tray?
It sounds like the autofill probe for the boiler is calcified/limescaled up, keeping the circuit from grounding correctly & shuting off the pump., & you'll need to take it out, & clean it. This will re-establish a good ground circuit between the top of the boilers water level & the tip of the probe.
