Further to my previous answer,

the replacement air pressure switch is of a different design to the original, some modification is required to make it fit the mounting plate.

the rounded part in the front of the mounting plate will need to be cut away to allow the new airflow switch to sit flush, you will also need two M3 x 20mm bolts and nuts. (the fixing screws for the previous airflow switch won't fit the new one).

there is a known fault with the air pressure switches on this model, don't order the replacement listed in your installation and servicing instructions, order part code 998484 instead.

(mine just failed too, the boiler engineer i called spoke to Ariston parts center)

switch off boiler ,remove casing & detatch rubber hose off pressure switch & blow through rubber tube to mnake sure that it is clear. it also may have a little airflow restrictor inside it also make sure that is clear from any blockages. attach casing back ,switch on & try again.
