Technical description

Fault with mains supply or PCB fuse

What causes this fault?

This fault occurs when the boiler's control system is completely deprived of electrical power, often due to a blown internal fuse or a failure within the main circuit board. The most common reason is an electrical surge or a faulty internal component causing a short circuit, which trips the protection to prevent further damage.

Engineer required

This is a high severity fault. Stop using the boiler and call a Gas Safe registered engineer. Do not attempt gas-related repairs yourself.
