How to Fix / Troubleshooting

User checks:

  • Record when resets are needed (CH or DHW, weather conditions, other appliances running) to help diagnosis.
  • Ensure the boiler has a stable power and gas supply.

Technician checks:

  • Inspect and tighten all electrical connections inside the boiler.
  • Clean the burner, ignition electrode, and ionisation electrode.
  • Check gas pressures and combustion quality.
  • Monitor operation with instruments to identify failing components such as the PCB or gas valve.

Repeated manual resets are a sign of an underlying fault that must be corrected.
