Single radiator not working?

today , my bedroom radiator stopped working - tried to bleed it, checked the "pin" was indeed pulled out, turned the other Rads off so the pressure would go to that one, even tapped the pipe gently but nothing worked. Yes, i did check that the valves were on =)
the pipe that feeds the rad with water is stone cold too - Any help appreciated - thank you

You will need an old towel, jug or bowel under bleed valve. Try turning off 1 valve and keep bleeding off till warm water comes thru.if it dosent turn on that valve turn off the other side and do the same again.If you have a combi boiler make sure you keep the system topped up to approx 1.5bar on gauge. If no water comes thru or very little then stops it means either valve faulty or pipe to that valve has blockage. You will then need a heating engineer or plumber to help solve the problem
