Possible Causes

Open-circuit flow sensor, Shorted return sensor, Damaged sensor wiring, Sensor out of calibration due to heat damage

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Isolate power before accessing internal wiring or sensors.

Engineer steps:

  • Identify the flow and return NTC sensors on the Grant boiler primary circuit.
  • Disconnect the suspect sensor and measure its resistance at a known water temperature; compare with Grant’s resistance/temperature chart.
  • Inspect the sensor wiring loom for chafing, loose connectors, or water ingress at plugs.
  • Replace any faulty NTC sensor with a genuine Grant-specified part and clear the fault on the control panel.

Users should not attempt to bypass or bridge sensors; this is unsafe and can damage the boiler.
