Vokera Linea 28

When we have central heating on or sometimes when we turn on shower our boiler comes up with error code 01 and the led flashes red

We have tried changing the air flow valve and the gas valve and still have the problem

This is an ignition fault is it not ?

Could be poorly aligned electrode or blocked venturi or aps hoses. Or perhaps its not even sparking in the first place.

In other words, you'd be better spending your money on a proper CORGI engineer than buying and swapping parts at random, at risk to yourselves, your property and certainly the validity of your home insurance cover!

Though maybe he/she is a gas fitter with poor fault finding knowledge (doubt it !)

And while i think about it i have found occasions where the fault code on the linea's was wrong and was a completely different fault altogether.

Have had an engineer out to it (not swapping parts out randomly myself) twice and so far he has changed the above mentioned parts to no avail, supposedly a vokera specialist!

So we think a ignition fault then do we?

OK good. At least u didnt do this work urself. Cant believe people still mess around with boilers themselves nowadays.

Basically a code "01" is usually related to the ignition parts of the boiler. As i said it could be a poorly aligned or cracked/faulty electrode/ignition lead or intermittent fault with spark generator/pcb. Or more likely flueing/air supply situation - blocked venturi/aps hoses etc.

I would look at the electrodes and the air supply/flueing side of things firstly before going down the road of changing any other components.
