AC High Lockout

Your boiler's main internal computer has lost communication with one of its electronic parts, meaning it cannot operate until the connection is restored.

Call an engineer soon

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 central control board stops receiving signals from its internal electronic module. The most common cause is a loose connection in the wiring harness or a critical failure of the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) itself. If these sensors and modules cannot talk to each other, the boiler shuts down as a safety precaution.

Typical repair cost £180-450 (including labour)
