Technical description: Remote reset supervision, switch off the power at the mains – if problem repeats Contact a heating engineer

What causes this fault?

This fault occurs when the boiler's internal computer loses track of its safety checks and needs to clear its temporary memory. The most common reason is a brief disruption in communication between the main control board and the display, or an electrical glitch that causes the software to stall. If a power reset doesn't work, it usually indicates that the wiring has come loose or the electronic circuit board is failing.

Typical repair cost £100-250 (including labour)

DIY fix possible
