    What does it mean if my Vaillant ecoTEC plus 837 water pressure sensor signal is out of range (too high)?
    • B
      barbaradavisSep 14, 2025
      If the water pressure sensor signal is out of range (too high), the cable to the water pressure sensor has a short-circuit at 5 V / 24 V, or there is an internal fault in the water pressure sensor. Inspect and repair the cable and replace the water pressure sensor.

    What to do if my Vaillant Boiler appliance does not start and ignition fails?
    • E
      Elizabeth Lara MDAug 25, 2025
      If your Vaillant Boiler fails to start and ignition attempts fail, there may be faults in the gas supply, such as a defective gas meter or gas pressure detector, air in the gas, gas flow pressure too low, or a disengaged fire protection tap. There may be faults in the gas valve, wrong gas setting, defective igniter (ignition transformer, ignition cable, ignition plug), stopped ionization current (cable, electrode), faulty earthing in the appliance or defective electronics. Inspect the gas supply and ignition components for faults.

      Ruben NelsonAug 26, 2025
      If the flame goes off during operation and subsequent ignition attempts fail, it could be due to a temporarily stopped gas supply or faulty earthing of the appliance. Check the gas supply and earthing connections.

    Why is there a dry fire in my Vaillant Boiler?
    • H
      Hannah ButlerAug 27, 2025
      A dry fire in your Vaillant Boiler can occur due to too little water in the appliance, a defective water pressure sensor, a defective cable to the pump or water sensor, a blocked or defective pump, or a pump output that is too low. Ensure sufficient water supply and check the pump and sensors for faults.

    What to do if my Vaillant ecoTEC plus 837 Boiler detects no pressure rise on turning on the pump?
    • B
      Brad CraneSep 14, 2025
      If no pressure rise was detected on turning on the pump, the water pressure sensor or/and pump may be defective, there may be air in the heating system, the quick bleeder may be defective, or there may be too little water in the appliance. Check and repair the pump and pressure sensor and ensure sufficient water.

    What to do if the gas supply to my Vaillant Boiler is off?
    • J
      Jordan HowellSep 23, 2025
      If the gas supply to your Vaillant Boiler is off or not correctly purged, check that the gas supply to the boiler is on, that it has been correctly purged, and that an inlet pressure of 20 mbar is available at the gas valve.

    What does it mean if my Vaillant ecoTEC plus 837 Boiler displays electronics/NTC fault?
    • R
      Robert HessSep 8, 2025
      An electronics/NTC fault indicates a short-circuit in the flow or return NTC, or that the electronics are defective. Check and replace the NTC or repair the electronics.

    What to do if external controls of my Vaillant ecoTEC plus 837 Boiler are not calling for heat?
    • D
      Diane WrightSep 23, 2025
      If your Vaillant Boiler's external controls are not on or calling for heat, check that all external controls are on and calling for heat.

    Laura LeeAug 31, 2025
    Why is the safety temperature limiter by NTC activated in my Vaillant ecoTEC plus 837?
    • J
      Jesse VazquezAug 31, 2025
      The safety temperature limiter by NTC might be activated because the Flow-NTC is not correctly thermal-connected or is defective, causing the appliance not to shut down. Check the thermal connection of the Flow-NTC and replace it if defective.
