Ideal Logic System IE fault L02
Ignition lockout after 5 attempts
Gas boilerWhat it means
Boiler fails to light after 5 ignition attempts and locks out, displaying fault code L02.
Likely causes
- Boiler did not light within 5 ignition attempts
- Failure to establish burner flame after repeated ignition attempts
- Flue components not correctly assembled, fixed or supported
- Flue or flue terminal obstruction
- Displaced seals on flue extensions
- Combustion products and inlet air mixing due to flue leakage
- Incorrect gas type or gas supply pressure/rate not verified prior to commissioning
- Incorrect gas rate/pressure
- Poor combustion
- Air/gas ratio valve fault
- Flue restriction or leakage
- CO/CO2 ratio greater than 0.004 indicating combustion deposits or fouling
- Debris or deposits in heat engine/sump outlet
- Damaged electrode affecting combustion
- Condensate trap blockage or drying out
- Combustion deposits building up on heat exchanger
- Debris in sump outlet or condensate trap
- Damaged or worn electrode affecting spark gap
- Water or gas joint leakage
Where to start
- Check ignition sequence completes
- Press Restart Button (E) to repeat ignition sequence
- Check gas supply and ignition components if lockout persists

Safety: Isolate gas and power before you open the case. If you have been into the gas side, do a tightness test, and a combustion and flue check before you hand back. Gas Safe (UK) or RGI (Ireland) work only.
