Default 3-port head on 2-port valve body???

My father, DIY "genius" that he is, was having some trouble with his central
heating system and was told by the service engineer that the problem was the
head on one of the 2-port valves.

Anyway, turned out the next door neighbour had a spare motorised valve head
from when he had his sytem altered and it happened to be the same make
(Danfoss). However, when I examined what my father had done it turned out
the head he was given was for a 3-port valve sytem, which he's fitted onto
the 2-port valve body.

Apparently the cable colours are all the same so he's just wired it up the
same way. The valve is on the hot-water side of things, so has anybody got
any ideas what i liable to happen when he goes to turn the heating back on?
