Possible Causes

Faulty DHW flow switch or turbine, Stuck diverter valve, Blocked plate heat exchanger, DHW NTC sensor fault

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Isolate power and water before any internal work.

  • Check DHW demand: Open a hot tap fully and observe the boiler; if it does not recognise demand (no flame symbol or burner start), the flow sensor may be faulty.
  • Engineer checks:
    • Test and replace the DHW flow switch/turbine if not signalling flow.
    • Inspect and free or replace the diverter valve if stuck in heating position.
    • Clean or replace the plate heat exchanger if blocked.
    • Test DHW NTC sensor and replace if defective.
