I have a Worcester Bosch 38CDi with a linked unvented cyclinder, which is run off like a separate radiator and is used for a shower cabin. Long story short, I had to check a valve on a downstairs hot water tap. The cold water inlet is in an awkward position and I thought I had turned off the water supply, so I could remove the valve. I hadn't, but by the time I realised my mistake the boiler pressure was down to zero. The boiler was turned off at the mains and I turned my attention to the tap.
The tap was sorted and I came to refill the boiler but it isn't happening. The cold water inlet was turned back on and the isolating valve on the filling loop by the boiler turned on. The blue cold water inlet switch on the boiler was pulled down and initially water could be heard, then nothing. The gauge doesn't move and there remains no sound of water.
I have checked the other side of the flexible pipe on which the isolating valve sits and there is water. I have looked in the commissioning instructions and can't see what I am doing wrong. As it's BH tomorrow and with the virus still going around, can someone provide some advice please?
Edit: the boiler was fitted in November 2018 and was serviced in January. The unvented cylinder is also new having been fitted in February when its predecessor leaked.
