High Lockout
E164 on Baxi Duo-tec/Megaflo

Your boiler is struggling to accurately detect the water pressure in the system, which is preventing it from heating up.

Call an engineer soon

Book a Gas Safe engineer within 24 to 48 hours. Your boiler may be unsafe or could break down completely if left.

Technical description

Pressure sensor fault

What causes this fault?

This fault occurs when the boiler's internal computer loses reliable communication with the sensor that monitors water pressure. The most common reason is a buildup of system sludge or debris blocking the sensor's opening, though it can also be caused by a loose electrical connection or a failing electronic component within the sensor itself.

Engineer required

This is a high severity fault. Stop using the boiler and call a Gas Safe registered engineer. Do not attempt gas-related repairs yourself.
