What the manual says
Manufacturer manualeBUS undervoltage | Short circuit on eBUS, overload on eBUS or two power sources on eBUS with different polarity
What causes this fault?
This fault occurs when there is an electrical conflict or a lack of power on the digital communication line that connects your boiler to your thermostat. It is usually caused by wires being accidentally crossed during installation, a physical short circuit in the cabling, or an internal electronic failure in the control module. Effectively, the boiler can no longer 'hear' what the thermostat is telling it to do, so it shuts down for safety.
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.
Avoid the next call-out bill
A cover plan would handle faults like F.49: no call-out fees, no surprise bills.
