F61 Error Code Vaillant Boilers

Boilers are machines. Even the most reliable and well-maintained boilers can encounter issues from time to time.
Let's find out what is the F61 error code in the Vaillant boiler.
🔍 What is the F61 error code?
The Vaillant F61 fault code usually appears when a component fails or when the wiring between the PCB and the gas valve is faulty.
🛠️ Possible Causes:
Let's see what causes the F61 error.
[FAULTY GAS VALVE]
One reason is a faulty gas valve in the boiler. If the gas valve gets stuck or jammed, your boiler might stop working. You'll need a Gas Safe registered engineer to check and solve this problem.
[GAS SUPPLY PROBLEM]
Another potential reason for the F61 fault code is a gas supply problem. This can mess up your boiler's operation. If there's not enough gas pressure or something's blocking the gas line, the gas valve won't get the fuel it needs to fire up the boiler.
[WIRING ISSUE]
The F61 error code can also be triggered by loose wiring between the PCB and gas valve or issues with the wiring harness. This can disrupt the communication.
[PCB FAULTS]
The F61 error code can also appear due to a faulty PCB, whether it's due to component breakdown or communication glitches. It's important to get a Gas Safe registered engineer to fix PCB issues immediately.
[ELECTRICAL FAULTS]
Electrical faults can disrupt the functioning of the gas valve in your boiler. When the PCB malfunctions or communicates improperly, it can lead to misfires or a loss of power to the gas valve, triggering errors like the Vaillant F61 code.
[COMPONENT MALFUNCTIONS]
Another cause of the F61 fault code is the malfunction of boiler components. These include the gas valve, ignition lead, electrode, sensors, pressure, temperature, fan, pump, combustion chamber, and burner. These issues can interrupt the boiler's operation and lead to the error code.
🔧 How to Troubleshoot:
Let's see how to fix the F61 error code.
[RESET THE BOILER]
If your boiler has a problem, trying a quick reset might fix it.
[CALL A GAS ENGINEER]
If resetting the boiler doesn't fix the issue, it's time to call for a professional gas-safe engineer. They know how to check the system pressure and gas supply and bleed the radiators.
