Why a code is not a diagnosis
A sensor code usually means the sensor, its wiring or its mounting is faulty; the physical condition the sensor measures (temperature, pressure, flow) may be perfectly normal.
Safe things to observe
- Note the code; there is no homeowner-accessible check for sensor circuits.
- If the appliance still runs, watch whether the code returns and report it when you call.
Do not
- Do not open the appliance to test or replace sensors yourself.
How professional service helps
- A technician measures the sensor and harness against the manual's values and replaces the faulty component.
- Combustion and safety devices are verified with an analyser and the manufacturer's procedure after any repair.

Parts and service
Parts commonly involved
These parts appear in the documented text for this alert. A code reports a condition, not a failed part — a technician confirms the cause by testing before anything is replaced.
Heat exchanger
The heat exchanger is where a boiler transfers heat from the burner flame to the water that heats your home.
What a technician checks →Burner assembly
The burner assembly is where gas and air meet and burn inside a boiler, and its condition decides whether combustion is clean or makes carbon…
What a technician checks →High-limit switch
A high-limit switch shuts the burner off when boiler water gets hotter than it should, protecting the heat exchanger and the system from overheating.
What a technician checks →Flue temperature sensor
The flue temperature sensor — sometimes called the stack or exhaust sensor — measures how hot the gases leaving the boiler are.

Frequently asked questions
Can I clear this code myself?
Clearing a code without fixing its cause usually just brings it back. Note the code, check the safe items on this page, then call a licensed technician. If your appliance manual describes a user reset for this exact code and it stays away, no call may be needed.
