What causes this fault?
This fault occurs when the boiler's main control board suffers a hardware failure or a corruption in its software, meaning it can no longer process commands. The most common reason is age-related wear to the electrical components on the board, though it can also be triggered by a sudden power surge or moisture getting into the control box.
Engineer required
This is a high severity fault. Stop using the boiler and call a Gas Safe registered engineer. Do not attempt gas-related repairs yourself.
