Default Boiler differential pressure switch

The pump flow pressure switch is starting to leak from around the mounting
for the micro switch on my Glowworm complheat boiler.

Is this likely to be fixable, or should I obtain a spare before dismantling.

I wouldn't mind trying to fix it first, but SWMBO can't stand the cold, so I
must get it fixed without losing heat overnight.

What sort of price would I expect to pay for a switch? it may be worth
getting one anyway.


Generally small components like these are rarely more than £20.
The exception being some thermistors from a Manufacturer starting with P.

These type of repairs usually require you releasing the pressure if not
completely draining down the boiler.
