If the water pressure sensor or cable harness hydraulics are defective in your Vaillant Boiler, it could be due to a broken line to the water pressure sensor, a short-circuit at 0 V, or a defective water pressure sensor. Inspect and replace the water pressure sensor or repair the line.
Why is there a short circuit in the return-NTC of my Vaillant Boiler?
A short circuit in the return-NTC of your Vaillant Boiler is often due to a defective NTC. Inspect and replace the NTC if defective.
What to do if there is a short circuit in the flow-NTC of my Vaillant Boiler?
If there is a short circuit in the flow-NTC of your Vaillant Boiler, it could be due to the NTC plug shorted to the casing or a defective NTC. Inspect and replace the NTC if defective.
What causes a broken Return-NTC in a Vaillant ecoTEC plus 618 Boiler?
A broken Return-NTC in your Vaillant Boiler can be caused by a defective or broken Return-NTC cable, or a faulty NTC. Check and replace NTC or repair cable.
How do I fix a broken Flow-NTC in my Vaillant Boiler?
A broken Flow-NTC in your Vaillant Boiler can be caused by a defective or broken Flow-NTC cable, or a faulty NTC. Check and replace NTC or repair cable.
Why is my Vaillant ecoTEC plus 618 fan speed too high on start?
If your Vaillant Boiler experiences fan speed variation (too high on start), the causes may be: 1. Blocked fans 2. Plug not inserted correctly on the fan 3. Defective hall sensor 4. Fault in cable harness 5. Defective electronics Inspect fan and connections, and replace defective components.
Why is there a large temperature spread in my Vaillant Boiler?
A large temperature spread between the flow and return probe in your Vaillant Boiler, indicating a water shortage, can be caused by a blocked or defective pump, or the pump output being too low. Inspect and repair or replace the pump.
What causes rapid temperature rise in my Vaillant ecoTEC plus 618 Boiler?
A rapid temperature rise in your Vaillant Boiler, indicating a water shortage, can be caused by a blocked pump, insufficient pump output, air in the appliance, low plant pressure, or interchanged flow and return NTCs. Inspect system for air and correct pump issues.
Why does the flame go off during operation in my Vaillant Boiler?
If the flame goes off during operation and subsequent ignition attempts fail in your Vaillant Boiler, it could be due to a temporarily stopped gas supply, spark failure in the ignition transformer, or faulty earthing of the appliance. Check gas supply and ignition system for faults.
What to do if my Vaillant ecoTEC plus 618 is dry firing?
If your Vaillant Boiler is dry firing, it indicates there may be too little water in the appliance, a defective water shortage switch, a defective cable to the pump or water shortage switch, a blocked or defective pump, or the pump output is too low. Ensure adequate water supply and check the water shortage switch and pump.
