Your boiler's internal computer has lost communication with one of its main control components, meaning it cannot operate safely.
Book a Gas Safe engineer within 24–48 hours. Your boiler may be unsafe or could break down completely if left.
Technical description: Module not detected.
What causes this fault?
This fault occurs when the boiler's main control board loses its digital connection with the internal components that manage heat and operation. The most common reason is a loose or damaged wiring connection between parts, or a hardware failure within the central control box itself. Effectively, the 'brain' of the boiler can no longer see the parts it needs to control, so it shuts down for safety.
