Vokera Vibe fault A10
Flame lockout / condensate drain obstructed / flue gas exhaust/air suction obstructed
Gas boilerWhat it means
Definitive flame lockout alarm; may be triggered by flame failure, an obstructed condensate drain, or obstructed flue gas exhaust/air suction.
Likely causes
- Faults arising during ignition
- Faults arising during operation
- Flame failure during ignition or operation
- Condensate drain obstructed
- Flue gas exhaust/air suction obstructed
- Flue components incorrectly assembled, fixed or supported
- Flue or flue terminal obstructed
- Degraded seals around appliance burner, internal flue seals, door and case seals
- Mixing of combustion products and inlet air due to flue integrity failure
- Damaged or worn burner insulating panel
Where to start
- Press and hold reset button for >2 seconds to attempt reactivation of normal operation
- Check condensate drain for blockage
- Check flue gas exhaust and air suction paths for obstruction

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.
