How to Diagnose Your Cold Radiator
Check Both Valves Are Open
Locate the valves at each end of the radiator. The thermostatic valve (TRV) should be set to a number, not 0. The lockshield valve (covered with a plastic cap) should be open - turn anticlockwise to open.
Feel Where It's Cold
Carefully feel the radiator when heating is on. Cold at top = air. Cold at bottom = sludge. Cold throughout = valve or system issue.
Check Other Radiators
If all radiators are cold, it's likely a boiler or pump issue. If just one or two, it's radiator-specific.
