   Ok, My heaters wont blow hot air, the system is bled through properly and have fitted a new thermostat. What else could it be?

    if the light comes on, having no heating is the least of your worries.
    
    who installed it? a garage? take it back.
    
    Check the oil, make sure its not creamy white (take the cap off)
