High Lockout
E05 on Remeha Quinta 30

Your boiler has stopped working because the fan that removes waste gases cannot spin properly, causing the system to shut down for safety.

Call an engineer soon

Book a Gas Safe engineer within 24 to 48 hours. Your boiler may be unsafe or could break down completely if left.

Technical description

Fan failure: check the fan and wiring.

What causes this fault?

This fault occurs when the boiler's internal computer detects that the fan is not spinning at the correct speed to safely expel exhaust gases. The most common reason is that the fan motor has burnt out or seized, though it can also be caused by loose electrical connections or a fault on the main control board. Because the boiler cannot guarantee that harmful fumes are being moved out of the flue, it shuts down immediately as a safety precaution.

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.
