Eb on Viessmann Vitodens 200-W WB2C 30kW Combi

The boiler has stopped itself while it tries to set its gas burning mix correctly, which usually means it needs a qualified engineer to check the flame sensing and flue before it can run safely again.

Call an engineer soon

Book a Gas Safe engineer within 24 to 48 hours. Your boiler may be unsafe or could break down completely if left.
