Plain-English guidance below. Severity, DIY steps, costs and parts are our interpretation to help you act, not text from the manual.

What causes this fault?

This fault occurs when the boiler's control system detects that the fan is not spinning at the required speed to safely clear combustion gases from the unit. The most common reasons are a mechanical failure within the fan motor itself, a loose connection in the internal wiring, or a fault on the main circuit board failing to send power to the fan.

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.
