The 6 most common faults
01
E119 High DIY-safe
Your boiler has stopped working because the water pressure inside the system has dropped too low to operate safely.
What to try first
Locate the filling loop (usually a silver braided hose with a valve) underneath the boiler.Open the valve(s) to allow mains water into the boiler.Monitor the pressure gauge on the front of the unit until it reaches between 1.0 and 1.5 bar, then securely close the valve.
