What causes this fault?
This is not actually a fault, but a status indicator showing the boiler is responding to a demand for hot water. It occurs when you turn on a tap or shower, triggering the internal flow sensor to tell the boiler to fire up and heat the water. Once you turn the tap off, the display will change back to its normal standby mode.
