A01
Boiler locks out shortly after a heat demand, red lockout light on burner control, no flame established
Ignition Failure / Flame Not Detected
A02
Boiler attempts to start but shuts down with lockout, fan runs but no flame, often after several ignition attempts
Flame Detection Failure After Ignition
A03
Boiler locks out with overheat indication, flow temperature very high, boiler very hot to touch on flow pipe
Overheat Thermostat Tripped
A04
Boiler displays low water pressure fault, will not fire, pressure gauge below minimum (often below 0.5 bar)
Low System Water Pressure
A05
Boiler shows fan/air pressure fault, burner does not ignite, fan may or may not run
Air Pressure Switch / Fan Fault
A06
Boiler locks out with flue/combustion fault, may start then shut down repeatedly
Flue Gas / Combustion Fault
A07
Boiler indicates flue temperature too high, shuts down to protect heat exchanger
Excessive Flue Gas Temperature
A08
Boiler shows flow temperature sensor fault, may not start or may run erratically
Flow NTC Sensor Failure
A09
Boiler shows return temperature sensor fault, may cycle rapidly or shut down
Return NTC Sensor Failure
A10
Boiler indicates domestic hot water (DHW) sensor fault on combi or system boiler with cylinder sensor
DHW NTC Sensor Failure
A11
Boiler shows flame present when there should be none, or fails to start due to false flame detection
False Flame Signal / Ionisation Fault
A12
Boiler displays gas valve or fuel valve fault, no ignition sequence
Gas/Oil Valve Control Fault
A13
Boiler shows pump fault, will not fire or shuts down on overheat
Primary Circulation Pump Failure
A14
Boiler indicates flue sensor or safety thermostat fault, may lock out
Flue Safety Thermostat / Sensor Failure
A15
Boiler shows condensate fault, often during cold weather, boiler will not fire
Blocked or Frozen Condensate Drain
A16
Boiler displays communication error between main PCB and burner control or remote controller
Control Communication Fault
A17
Boiler shows thermostat or room control fault, will not respond to demand
External Control / Thermostat Fault
A18
Boiler indicates flame loss during operation, cycles on and off with lockouts
Unstable Flame / Intermittent Flame Failure
A19
Boiler shows lockout immediately on start with no fan or pump operation
Internal Control Self-Check Failure
A20
Boiler indicates high system pressure, may discharge water from safety valve and shut down
High System Pressure
Symptom
Boiler casing or flue joints show signs of soot or staining
Flue Gas Leakage
Symptom
Boiler cycles on and off rapidly without reaching set temperature
Short Cycling
Symptom
Boiler display is on but unresponsive, buttons do not work or menu is frozen
Control Panel / User Interface Fault
Symptom
Boiler fan runs continuously even when there is no demand for heat
Fan Overrun / Stuck Relay
Symptom
Boiler frequently loses pressure and needs topping up every few days
Chronic System Water Loss
Symptom
Boiler frequently trips the household RCD or MCB when starting
Electrical Short or Earth Leakage
Symptom
Boiler ignites but then shuts down after a few seconds repeatedly
Post-Ignition Flame Dropout
Symptom
Boiler is leaking water from underneath or from casing joints
Internal Water Leak
Symptom
Boiler lockout occurs mainly in very cold weather, with external condensate pipe present
Frozen Condensate Pipe
Symptom
Boiler makes loud banging or knocking noises (kettling) during operation
Boiler Kettling / Localised Boiling
Symptom
Boiler or flue emits unusual rumbling or roaring noise during firing
Combustion Instability
Symptom
Boiler provides heating but not hot water to cylinder on system/regular boilers
No Cylinder Heating
Symptom
Boiler runs but radiators do not get hot or only partially heat up
Poor Central Heating Circulation
Symptom
Boiler runs for heating but does not provide domestic hot water (combi models)
No DHW Production
Symptom
Boiler starts normally but shuts down when multiple radiators heat up
Flow Restriction Under Load
Symptom
Boiler will not start at all, no lights or display, completely dead
No Power to Boiler
Symptom
Domestic hot water temperature fluctuates or runs hot then cold on a combi boiler
Unstable DHW Temperature Control
Symptom
Strong smell of gas or oil around the boiler or burner
Fuel Leak / Incomplete Combustion
