How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Switch off the boiler and isolate gas if you suspect a leak. Only Gas Safe engineers should work on gas components.

  • Check gas supply: Confirm other gas appliances work. Ensure the gas cock under the boiler is open.
  • Reset once: Press and hold the reset button as per the user guide. Watch for ignition attempts.
  • External checks: Ensure the flue terminal is clear and the condensate pipe is not frozen.
  • Engineer tasks:
    • Inspect and clean ignition electrode and flame sensor.
    • Check gas valve operation and inlet pressure.
    • Clean burner and check for correct combustion.

If A01 persists after basic checks, contact a Gas Safe engineer.
