After my boiler again developed an issue with the fan after the boiler was switched off for some time, I have read on this forum, elsewhere on the internet and seen many YouTube videos where the fault is discussed.
It seems to be a common fault that the PCB can blow if the boiler has electricity cut to it and then restored e.g. power-cut, isolation for maintenance, reinstallation, etc. I understand the issue no longer appears in newer models. C1 and C6 might be the error codes showing after a few minutes when the fan fails to start.
How many hundreds or thousands of owners could there be who did not know what the fault was or the cause of it? A significant number have posted the issue online, but unless you have some basic tech know-how and the desire to seek advice on forums, not many will be reporting it.
Potentially a class-action lawsuit?
