What you can safely do
There is nothing you can safely do yourself with this one. Leave the boiler off and book an engineer.
Before you book an engineer
- Write down the code exactly as the display shows it: F.00.
- Find your boiler's model name. It is usually on the front panel or in the user manual. The table below shows why it matters: Vaillant codes can mean different things on different models.
- Note when it started and what the boiler was doing (heating, hot water, or starting up).
- If the boiler is still under warranty, check your warranty paperwork before you book anyone.
Call a Gas Safe engineer if
