Common Worcester Bosch Boiler Fault Codes

Worcester Bosch boilers display fault codes on the screen to help diagnose problems. Here are the most common fault codes we attend in Streatham, Tooting and Balham:

CE
Low Water Pressure

Description: System water pressure has dropped below the safe minimum (some models display H07 instead).

Likely cause: System leak, or pressure not topped up after draining or bleeding radiators.

What to do: Safe to repressurise yourself via the filling loop. If pressure keeps dropping, call an engineer — you have a leak.
EA
Ignition Failure / No Flame Detected

Description: Boiler is attempting to ignite but isn’t detecting a flame.

Likely cause: Gas supply issue, faulty ignition electrode, faulty gas valve.

What to do: Check gas supply (do other gas appliances work?). Do not attempt to repair yourself — call an engineer.
D5
Condensate Pipe Frozen

Description: The external condensate pipe has frozen, blocking drainage and shutting the boiler down.

Likely cause: An external condensate pipe run without adequate insulation during prolonged sub-zero weather.

What to do: Pour warm (not boiling) water over the external pipe to thaw it, then reset the boiler. Very common every winter in South West London.
A1
Pump Fault / Low Pressure

Description: Boiler has detected a circulation pump problem, often linked to low water pressure.

Likely cause: Low system pressure, an airlock, or a pump that has run dry or seized.

What to do: Check the pressure gauge first and top up if low. If pressure is fine and the fault persists, call an engineer.
F0
Internal / PCB Fault

Description: An internal control fault has been detected within the boiler’s electronics.

Likely cause: Faulty circuit board (heat control module) or a wiring/connector fault.

What to do: Try resetting the boiler once. If the fault returns, call an engineer — a PCB replacement is often required.

Worcester Bosch Boiler FAQs

Common questions from homeowners across Streatham, Tooting, Balham and South West London.

How long does a Worcester Bosch boiler last?

A well-maintained Worcester Bosch Greenstar 8000 can last 15-20 years with annual servicing. The Greenstar 2000 and 4000 range typically lasts 12-15 years. Annual servicing is the single biggest factor in longevity.

How do I get the 12-year Worcester Bosch warranty?

The 12-year warranty applies to the Greenstar 8000 range. It requires installation by a Worcester Accredited Installer, a Worcester Bosch Greenstar system filter fitted alongside the boiler, registration with Worcester Bosch within 30 days of installation, and an annual service by a Gas Safe engineer every year. We register your warranty on the day of installation.

What is the most reliable Worcester Bosch boiler?

The Greenstar 8000 is Worcester Bosch’s most reliable model. It features a stainless steel heat exchanger, Quiet Mark accreditation and qualifies for the longest warranty in the range.

What does EA mean on a Worcester Bosch boiler?

EA means the boiler is attempting to ignite but isn’t detecting a flame — usually caused by a gas supply issue, a faulty ignition electrode, or a faulty gas valve. Check that other gas appliances are working, then call an engineer.

Why has my Worcester Bosch boiler shown a D5 fault?

D5 means the external condensate pipe has frozen, which is extremely common in cold weather. Pour warm (not boiling) water over the pipe where it exits the house, then reset the boiler. If it happens repeatedly every winter, ask us about a wider condensate pipe or trace heating.

How much does a Worcester Bosch boiler service cost?
