What causes this fault?

This code appears because your boiler has reached a pre-set internal timer that tracks how long it has been since its last professional inspection. It is not caused by a component failure, but rather a digital reminder designed to ensure the system remains safe and efficient. Once a qualified engineer performs the annual service and resets the timer, the message will disappear.
