What it is
The Ideal 005001 is a thermistor, a temperature-sensing component fitted to Ideal Sprint Rapide boilers. It measures the temperature of the water in the appliance and passes a resistance signal back to the control board, which uses that reading to regulate firing and hot water delivery. A failed thermistor leaves the board without reliable temperature data, so the boiler may lock out, run erratically or stop producing hot water altogether.
Signs this part needs replacing
- The boiler locks out or fails to fire on a call for heat or hot water
- Hot water temperature is erratic, running hot then cold without adjustment
- The appliance short cycles, firing and shutting down repeatedly over short intervals
- A fault code or lockout relating to temperature sensing appears on the boiler
- The boiler overheats or the radiators stay cold despite a demand signal
Before you order
- Check the GC number on the appliance data badge and match it against the list above before ordering
- Confirm the exact Sprint Rapide model, as the 90NF, 90NFP, RS75 and RS75N share this part but differ in configuration
