BoilerFaultCodesTechnical description
Temperature supply sensor too high (> 101 °C).
What causes this fault?
This fault occurs because the water leaving the boiler has exceeded a safe temperature limit, causing the system to shut down for safety. It is usually caused by a lack of water flow, often due to a pump failure or a blockage within the heat exchanger that prevents heat from being carried away quickly enough. In some cases, the sensor itself may simply be faulty and providing an incorrect high-temperature reading.
This issue is more frequent during the first cold spell of autumn, when pumps that have sat idle all summer can seize up upon restarting.
Engineer required
