What causes this fault?
This fault occurs when the boiler struggles to maintain a steady flame while running at its lowest power level. The most common cause is a dirty or worn-out sensing probe that can no longer accurately detect the fire, or an incorrect mix of gas and air preventing a consistent burn.
