There are many reasons why it should not work.

The pump and fan could be seized.
If there's been no heat in the property the PCB and electrics could be damp.
Anything that should open/close/move could be seized.

You need an RGI to carry out a Gas Safety Check / Annual Gas Service, to start with, then carry out repairs.
