Radiator is cold all over.

Check if the central heating system is on and if the thermostat is set correctly. Ensure the radiator valve is fully open and that other radiators in the system are working.

Turn off the central heating system and isolate the radiator if possible. Contact a qualified plumber to assess and repair the leak.
