5 (Flashing Light) Your boiler has stopped working because the water pressure inside the heating system has dropped too low.
Your boiler has stopped working because the water pressure inside the heating system has dropped too low.
What to check first
- Locate the filling loop (a flexible metal hose) underneath your boiler or near your airing cupboard pipes.
- Open the valves on the filling loop to allow cold mains water to enter the system while watching the pressure gauge.
- Close the valves firmly once the needle sits between 1.0 and 1.5 bar, then restart your boiler.
Parts commonly replaced
- Filling loop
- Pressure gauge
- Pressure relief valve
LED 4 (Flashing light)
Your boiler is perfectly healthy and is simply waiting for a signal from your thermostat or hot water tap to start heating.
LED 5 (Flashing light) Your boiler has stopped working because the water pressure inside the heating system has dropped too low to operate safely.
