What causes this fault?
This fault occurs when the boiler's main control board loses communication with the sensor that monitors the temperature of the water leaving the unit. The most common reasons are an electrical failure within the sensor itself or a break in the wiring caused by vibration, heat exposure, or moisture. Without this data, the boiler shuts down as a safety precaution to prevent overheating.
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.
Avoid the next call-out bill
A cover plan would handle faults like F.01: no call-out fees, no surprise bills.
