Technical description

Offset for maximum speed

What causes this fault?

This fault occurs when the boiler's control board detects that the internal fan is operating at a speed that doesn't match the expected safety settings. It is usually caused by an electronic communication error between the main circuit board and the fan, or a slight decalibration in how the gas valve is being controlled. While the boiler may still operate, it signifies that the internal components are not perfectly synced.
