I have a gas boiler with a two zone (hot water/heating) setup. Hot water from the cylinder is only possible if the heating is also on.

Suspect that one of the motorised valves isn't working properly. But how can I determine which one is the problem? I have two Myson brand actuators and the red indicator light works on both. Both are set to Auto.
Is one of my valves stuck in the wrong position due to a motor failure? If so is it the one for the hot water cylinder or the one for the heating that needs investigation?
