What causes this fault?

This status code appears when the boiler is performing a routine check to ensure the internal pump is moving water through the heat exchanger correctly. It is a protective measure to ensure the system doesn't overheat before the burner fires up fully. This is usually part of the boiler's normal start-up cycle rather than a component failure.

DIY fix possible

Wait for 5 to 10 minutes as this is often a temporary status code and not a permanent fault.Check that your radiator valves are open to allow water to circulate properly.Ensure the boiler pressure is in the green zone, typically between 1.0 and 1.5 bar.
