What the manual says
Manufacturer manualNo DHW heating - Cylinder temperature sensor 2/outlet sensor shorted out
What causes this fault?
This fault occurs when the internal electronic probe responsible for monitoring the hot water temperature develops an electrical short circuit. The boiler’s control board can no longer read the water temperature safely, so it disables the hot water function to prevent overheating. This is typically caused by natural wear and tear of the sensor or moisture ingress damaging the electrical connections over time.
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 51: no call-out fees, no surprise bills.
