Who knows ?

Without even a clue as to which make/model

I would have expected 2-3 and 5-6 to be the "ON" contacts

Why don't you try and understand what's going on, then you are more
likely to get it right

Indeed, a couple of suggestions to the OP. Post a piccie somewhere (not
on the group) of the old one. some one may well know it. 2. Try to work
out what the various cables coming in are to/from

i agree geoff after recently fiddling with my own progammer recently,
the old one had no instructions or indication of what the wire was for,
i had to literally walk round the system to find out which wires went
where and what they did when they got there!

still managed to get a shock tho!

and it worked a dream when i'd finnished installing the new one. i have
sellotaped the new programmer instructions to the boiler access panel
for safe keeping too!
