Alpha Boiler Fault Codes

Fault Code	Models Affected	Fault	Possible Cause
1	All	Ignition failure	Gas supply Check pressure tubes Ignition electrode gap Flame sensor electrode gap Ignition generator or lead Flame sensor electrode lead Gas valve setting Gas valve PCB
2	All	Overheat boiler lock out	Pump or flow problem Blocked heat exchanger Air in heat exchanger Overheat thermostat Thermal fuse (if open circuit then replace primary heat exchanger)
3	All	High flue thermostat temperature	Blocked or restricted primary flow Heat exchanger air flow blocked Flue restriction Flue sensor fault
4	All	Gas valve electrical connection fault	Gas valve lead connection fault Faulty gas valve Faulty PCB
5	All	Heating flow sensor fault	Flow sensor wire connections Flow sensor faulty
6	All	DHW sensor fault	DHW sensor wiring connection DHW sensor faulty
8	All	Maximum number of resets	Refer to fault history codes (INFO menu d9)
10	All	Primary system pressure low	Check expansion vessel pressure (1 bar) Leak in system Expansion relief valve operated Primary pressure switch
12	All	“Cylinder sensor fault (FlowSmart only)”	Cylinder sensor wiring connections Cylinder sensor faulty
15	All	Internal wiring error	Check internal wiring connections to PCB Combination boiler DHW sensor X4 System boiler link X14 Refer to wiring diagram
16	All	Fan fault	Check fan wiring connections Fan fault PCB fault
20	All	Flame sensing fault	Check flame sensing electrode and lead PCB fault
24	All	Control panel button fault	Check for jammed control panel buttons Check for jammed PCB buttons
25	All	Overheat lock out	Air in heat exchanger Blocked or restricted primary flow Heat exchanger air flow blocked Flue restriction Flue sensor fault Pump fault Boiler or Heating circuit valve closed
27	All	Insufficient primary flow	Blocked or restricted primary flow Air in heat exchanger Boiler or heating circuit valve closed Pump fault Primary flow sensor fault
29	All	Flue sensor fault	Check sensor wiring connection Flue sensor faulty
31	All	Loss of communication with external Control (Alpha Climatic)	Remote control or receiver connection wiring Remote control or receiver
37	All	Low supply voltage	Check mains power supply
38	All	Loss of flame rectification	Check flame sensing electrode and lead Check for flue gas recirculation Check/adjust the gas valve settings Check/adjust the fan speed settings
43	All	Loss of flame rectification	Check gas supply/working pressure Check flame sensing electrode and lead Check for flue gas recirculation Check/adjust the gas valve settings Check/adjust the fan speed settings
44	All	Safety lock out	Check external control (room thermostat) requests Rapid on/off hot tap requests
46	All	External sensor intervention	Check external sensor and cable are not damaged or wet Check continuity of external sensor and circuit Check connection at X19 on PCB and sensor connecting block
47	All	Reduced burner output	Air in heat exchanger Restricted primary flow Heat exchanger air flow blocked Flue restriction Flue sensor fault Pump fault
51	All	Climatic RF communication fault	Batteries require replacing Distance between boiler and climatic control too great Interference Object blocking signal (metallic)
