Quick answer

Gas supply fault.

What does this fault code mean?

Gas supply fault.

Common causes

• Gas supply fault; Baxi lists power supply, sensing electrode, spark electrode and cable among checks for this code.

Symptoms

• The boiler may fail to ignite or lock out.

What can the homeowner safely check?

• Check whether other gas appliances work and whether the gas supply is on; do not work on electrodes or cables.

Boiler reset information

Reset information was not provided in the verified manufacturer source. Do not repeatedly reset an unresolved fault.

When should I call an engineer?

Contact a suitably qualified heating engineer when the fault persists, the boiler locks out, or the manufacturer instructions do not resolve it. For gas appliance work in the UK, use a Gas Safe registered engineer.

• Investigate gas supply, power, ignition electrodes and associated cable.
