Could this simply be due to a failed/faulty micro-switch on the hot tap, failing to run the system?
Try opening (if you haven't done so already) the cold tap and then the hot, and see if you then get warm water as the two mix. If you do get some hot mixed, then likely to be a failed switch, as running both together 'tricks' the system to run.

I seem to recall too that on earlier Carver systems, there was a non-return valve that was prone to stick on the hot side of the water. Perhaps someone else could comment on this latter query.
