What causes this fault?
This fault occurs when the boiler's internal computer, the Printed Circuit Board, suffers a critical failure or receives abnormal electrical signals it cannot process. The most common reasons are a malfunctioning circuit board, a faulty ignition system that is confusing the controls, or a sudden electrical surge that has damaged the sensitive internal components.
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.

A cover plan would handle faults like Fast flash / Off: no call-out fees, no surprise bills.
