25

Your boiler's pilot light is failing to remain on, which means the safety system is cutting the gas supply to prevent unburnt gas from filling your home.

High Engineer only £120-250

Parts commonly replaced

  • Thermocouple
  • Pilot burner assembly
  • Gas control valve
26

Your boiler has successfully lit its small starter flame, but the main burner is failing to ignite because the gas valve is not opening to supply the necessary fuel.

Not faults — these are normal operating states. Tap to expand.

319 494 Diagnostic The viewing window that allows you to see the pilot flame inside your boiler has become damaged, loose, or improperly sealed, which compromises the safety of your appliance. 381 656 Diagnostic Your boiler is failing to light because the small internal flame responsible for igniting the main burner is blocked or not working correctly. 383 598 Diagnostic Your boiler has detected a communication or control error related to the main burner assembly, causing it to shut down for safety reasons. 386 575 Diagnostic Your boiler is failing to light the flame because the internal component responsible for creating the initial spark is not making a proper connection. 398 055 Diagnostic Your boiler is failing to ignite properly because the gas delivery component feeding the main flame is blocked or restricted. E01 372 Diagnostic Your boiler has failed to light because it cannot detect a flame, which means your heating and hot water have stopped working. E01 374 Diagnostic Your boiler has failed to ignite the flame reliably and has automatically switched itself off as a safety precaution. E01 490 Diagnostic Your boiler has failed to ignite or stay lit, meaning it cannot produce heat or hot water. E01 505 Diagnostic Your boiler has failed to light because it cannot detect that a flame is present in the burner. E01-372 Diagnostic Your boiler has failed to ignite or stay lit, meaning your heating and hot water have stopped working. E01-374 Diagnostic Your boiler has failed to ignite or stay lit, meaning it cannot produce heat or hot water because it has lost its flame signal. E01-490 Diagnostic Your boiler has detected a failure to ignite or a persistent loss of flame, meaning it cannot start up to provide heat or hot water. E01-505 Diagnostic Your boiler is failing to light its pilot flame, meaning it cannot start the main burner to provide you with heating or hot water. I3 Status Your boiler is receiving power correctly, but the system has not detected a fault or specific issue at this moment. Neon I3 Status Your boiler is receiving electrical power, and this light is simply a normal indicator that the mains switch is turned on. Neon SG1 Status This light simply shows that your boiler is currently trying to light its flame, which is a normal part of its startup sequence.
