What causes this fault?

This occurs because the 'Service' button has been pressed, manually locking the boiler into its lowest firing rate for testing purposes. It is not caused by a component failure, but rather by the control system being left in a diagnostic mode intended for engineer use. To fix it, the boiler simply needs to be toggled back to normal operation by pressing the service button again.

DIY fix possible

Locate the service button (represented by a spanner icon or 'Service' label) on the control panel.Press and hold the service button for roughly 5 seconds until the light stops pulsing.The boiler should return to normal operation and your heating should resume.
