Not faults — these are normal operating states. Tap to expand.
S.00 Status Your boiler is working correctly and is currently in standby mode because your thermostat has reached the desired temperature or the heating timer is off. S.01 Status Your boiler is preparing to start the heating process by running the internal fan to clear out the combustion chamber. S.02 Status Your boiler is performing a routine start-up check by running the internal pump for a few moments before lighting the burner. S.03 Status Your boiler is currently attempting to light the flame but is failing to do so, meaning you won't have heating or hot water until it succeeds. S.04 Status Your boiler is working normally and is currently firing up to provide hot water for your taps or showers. S.05 Status Your boiler is temporarily cooling itself down after finishing a heating or hot water cycle, which is a normal part of its operation. S.06 Status Your boiler's fan is continuing to run after it should have stopped, causing the system to pause for safety reasons. S.07 Status Your boiler is continuing to run its internal water pump after the heating or hot water has been turned off to safely cool down the heat exchanger. S.08 Status Your boiler is taking a short, programmed break to prevent it from turning on and off too frequently, which helps save energy and protect its internal parts. S.20 Status Your boiler is temporarily pre-heating the internal water to ensure you get hot water quickly when you turn on a tap. S.21 Status Your boiler is performing a routine start-up check by running its internal fan before lighting the burner. S.23 Status Your boiler is currently struggling to light the flame it needs to provide heating and hot water. S.24 Status Your boiler is operating normally; this is a status message indicating that the burner is currently lit and heating your water. S.25 Status Your boiler is staying in a cooling-down mode because it thinks the internal temperature is still too high after the heating or hot water has turned off. S.26 Status Your boiler's fan is staying on longer than it should after the heating or hot water has been turned off. S.27 Status Your boiler is continuing to run the pump for a short period after the heating has switched off to safely move excess heat away from the internal components. S.28 Status Your boiler is taking a short, programmed break to prevent it from turning on and off too frequently, which protects the internal parts from unnecessary wear. S.30 Status Your boiler is working fine but hasn't started the heating because your external thermostat or timer is currently telling it to stay off. S.31 Status Your boiler is currently set to provide hot water only, and the central heating has been disabled because it is in summer mode. S.32 Status Your boiler has temporarily paused operation because it has detected very cold temperatures or an unusual fluctuation in the fan speed, often caused by strong winds or a blocked flue. S.34 Status Your boiler is not broken; it has simply noticed the temperature is very low and is running briefly to prevent the internal pipes from freezing. S.53 Status Your boiler has temporarily paused because the water temperature is rising too quickly or unevenly, suggesting a circulation issue or a sensor fault. S.54 Status Your boiler has sensed that there isn't enough water moving through the system to heat up safely, so it has shut down to protect itself. S.96 Status Your boiler is temporarily pausing to perform a routine check on its internal temperature sensors before it can provide heating or hot water. S.98 Status Your boiler is temporarily pausing because it has detected a suspicious temperature difference and is double-checking that its heat sensors are working correctly before it continues.
