What does the Glow-worm Easicom E760 fault code mean?
The E760 fault code indicates an open circuit in the flue gas pressure sensor, which means the boiler is unable to detect the pressure of the flue gases correctly. This can lead to the boiler shutting down to prevent unsafe operation.
Common Causes
- Faulty Flue Gas Pressure Sensor: The sensor may be malfunctioning or damaged, preventing accurate readings.
- Blocked Flue: A blockage in the flue system can cause pressure issues, leading to the sensor not functioning correctly.
Can I fix it myself? (DIY)
It is recommended to call a Gas Safe Engineer for this issue, as it involves gas and electrical components that require professional handling for safety reasons.
Estimated Repair Cost (2026 UK Prices)
The estimated repair cost for addressing the E760 fault could be around £150 to £250, primarily due to the potential need for a new flue gas pressure sensor and associated labour costs.
