High Lockout
CE207 on Worcester Bosch GB162

Your boiler has stopped working because there is not enough water pressure in the system to operate safely.

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.

Technical description

Water pressure is too low

What causes this fault?

This fault occurs when the water pressure inside your heating system drops below the minimum level required for the boiler to fire up. The most common reasons are a slow leak from a radiator valve or pipework, or the air pressure in the expansion vessel has depleted over time, causing water to be expelled through the safety valve.

This issue is more frequent in autumn when the heating is turned on for the first time after summer, as the change in temperature can highlight minor leaks or air pockets.

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.
