What causes the Saunier Duval F11 fault?

This fault occurs when the data link between the boiler's internal computer and the front display panel is broken, preventing the two parts from 'talking' to each other. It is usually caused by a loose plug, a damaged wire, or a failing electronic chip on one of the circuit boards. Because the boiler cannot confirm its settings or safety parameters, it stops running as a precaution.

Typical repair cost £120-350 (including labour)
