What causes the Potterton t80 fault?
This message appears when the boiler's internal computer is displaying the current water temperature being sent to your taps rather than the system pressure. It is not actually a fault, but rather a specific monitoring mode that occurred because a button was likely pressed or the system is performing a routine check. You simply need to toggle the display settings to return the screen to its standard pressure reading.
DIY fix possible
Locate the RESET button on the control panel.Press the RESET button once to scroll through the menu letters.Stop when the display shows 'P' (for Pressure) to return to normal operation.
