Book a Gas Safe engineer within 24–48 hours. Your boiler may be unsafe or could break down completely if left.
Technical description: Water pressure sensor fault
What causes this fault?
This fault occurs when the boiler's internal computer can no longer read how much water is inside the system, causing it to shut down for safety. The most common reason is that the pressure sensor has become blocked with system debris or its electronic internal components have simply failed over time.
