What's the % doing in the url? You currently have
...label:EXAMPLE%51.92526...

%51 is Q, so you're not specifying a location correctly:
...label:EXAMPLEQ.92526...

Make the % into | or %7C:
...label:EXAMPLE%7C51.92526...
...label:EXAMPLE|51.92526...

Since you know the geographic coordinates of your marker, and that's
so close to the centred postcode, there's not a great deal of point in
geocoding the postcode. Just leave it out: the map will be centred on
the marker, which is **almost** the same.
