How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Treat E01 as a combustion-related fault. Turn off power and gas before removing burner components.

  • Clean flame sensor: Remove and clean the flame rod with fine abrasive pad as described earlier.
  • Inspect igniter: Check for cracks or damage and replace if suspect.
  • Check gas supply basics: Confirm gas valve is open and other gas appliances work.
  • Reset once: After cleaning and inspection, reset the boiler. If E01 returns, stop and call a technician.
