BoilerFaultCodesTechnical description
Waiting time: Water shortage. The product is within the waiting period of the modulation block/operating block function as a result of a water deficiency (flow/return spread too large).
What causes this fault?
This fault occurs when the boiler's internal sensors detect that the heat is and building up too quickly because the water isn't flowing away fast enough. The most common reason is a blockage in the system or a failing pump that is struggling to push the water around your radiators. It can also be triggered if there is too much air trapped in the pipework or if your heating valves are bumped shut.
This issue often surfaces in autumn when the heating is turned back on for the first time, as internal pump parts may have seized or sludge has settled during the summer months.
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.
