Your boiler has lost the ability for its main control brain to talk to the display screen, meaning it cannot receive commands or function correctly.
Your boiler has lost the signal from one of its internal temperature sensors, so it has shut down to prevent overheating.
Your boiler has lost the signal from a temperature sensor that monitors the water returning to the system, causing it to stop heating as a safety precaution.
Your boiler has detected an electrical fault in a temperature sensor, which is preventing it from safely monitoring the water heat levels and stopping it from operating.
Your boiler's temperature-monitoring system has detected a faulty signal, likely due to a loose wire or a broken sensor, preventing it from heating your home safely.
Your boiler has lost the ability to read the temperature of your hot water cylinder because of a faulty connection or wiring issue.
Your boiler is struggling to read the water temperature in your hot water tank due to a loose wire or a faulty sensor, so it has shut down the heating to prevent issues.
Your boiler has detected that it is running too hot and has automatically shut itself down to prevent damage.
Your boiler has detected that it is heating up much faster than it can move that heat away, which usually means the water pump is stuck or there is an air pocket trapped inside the system.
