My Vaillant Ecotec Plus 831 had an F61 error this morning which said something about valve and fuel. I had no hot water, but after turning the boiler off and on it went away and I've got hot water again. I googled it and it says it's either the gas valve, wiring harness or most likely the PCB. I called my gas engineer who services it every year and he says it'll definitely be the PCB as he knows my boiler model well. He said it can be reset a few times but will eventually stop working completely within about a week. So he's coming on Wednesday to replace it. £270 for the board plus £90 labour. Not too bad I guess as I was expecting a lot more.
My boiler is 12 years old now and Vaillant boilers are apparently good for up to 15 years. Hopefully it'll keep going for a few more years after this repair.
