What causes this fault?

This fault occurs when the electrical connection between the boiler's internal computer and the front screen is broken or lost. The most common reason is a failure of the display circuit board itself, or a blown fuse on the main control board caused by an internal electrical surge.

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.
