Fault Finding - Ideal Boilers Esprit 2 Installation And Servicing Manual

85 L.....F..... (FLAME DETECTION ERROR)
If the boiler reset button is
pressed does the boiler ignite for
a short time then extinguish?
YES
Check the detection electrode and
associated harness for:
continuity, visual condition, position
( Refer to Frame 64 ).
Replace as necessary.
Note. Due to the wave form of the rectified voltage, the reading will vary depending on the type of meter used to
measure the value (some may measure the possible peak voltage of 339V). In general terms a reading greater
than 150V indicates that the correct voltage is supplied to the gas valve.
