Possible Causes

Defective modulating gas valve, Loose gas valve wiring harness, Incorrect gas type setting on control, Faulty control board output to gas valve

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Gas components must only be serviced by licensed gas technicians. Do not attempt to open or adjust the gas valve.

  • Check external gas supply: Confirm that the main gas cock to the boiler is open and that other gas appliances function.
  • Visual wiring check: With power off, inspect the gas valve connector on the Viessmann gas valve. Ensure it is fully seated and the harness is not damaged.
  • Reset control: Restore power and reset the boiler once. If F14 reappears, do not continue to reset.
  • Professional diagnosis: A technician will measure gas valve coil resistance, verify correct gas type configuration in the Viessmann service menu, and replace the gas valve or control board if necessary.
