What the manual says
Manufacturer manualOutlet probe short-circuited
What causes this fault?
This fault occurs when the electrical sensor that measures the water temperature exiting the boiler fails or loses its connection. Over time, heat exposure or moisture can cause the sensor's internal wiring to break down or short-circuit, preventing the boiler from knowing if it is safe to continue heating.
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 E42: no call-out fees, no surprise bills.
