What does the red flashing light on a Vokera boiler mean?

Vokera boilers that have a red light flashing or constantly on, are likely to be in fault and lockout, leaving you without heat and hot water. If you have a relatively new boiler, check your Vokera boiler warranty as the issue may be covered by that and you can get your boiler fixed free of charge.

This issue could be caused by many things, so you need to hire a Gas Safe engineer who can diagnose the problem and repair your Vokera boiler, but in the meantime, this guide will help you find the root cause of your Vokera boiler’s red light and get your heating and hot water working again.

Vokera Boiler Red Light Causes

Vokera boilers have a constant green light and no flashing red lights when it is working properly and means that your boiler will continue to provide hot water and heating as usual, unless your boiler’s red light appears in addition to the green light though, then it could indicate a problem and you will need to check the Vokera fault code guide to fix the problem.

Below are the possible causes of various light sequences that you might see on your Vokera boiler if it breaks.

Green Light Off and Red Light On

The unit is in a boiler lockout because and will be showing a constant red light on the Vokera boiler. This could be due to:

  • The boiler is getting too hot (overheating)
  • The pump doesn’t circulate hot water to the central heating system, or to the taps as required.
  • A problem with the fan means that potentially harmful flue gasses are not being expelled.

Green and Red Lights on

Flashing green light on Vokera boiler

The constant green light from your Vokera boiler indicates that the boiler’s flame is functioning and this is what you want to look for however if the green light starts flashing, it could indicate that there is an issue. Check your Vokera boiler thermostat or controls to start the boiler up and see if it is working properly.

  • Hot water sensor not working
  • Boiler on standby

Resetting a Vokera Boiler

It is possible to reset your Vokera boiler to turn off the flashing lights and make it work again to heat your home or hot water.

Reset your Vokera boiler by moving the mode selector switch to ‘OFF/RESET’ and then moving it back to ‘hot water only or ‘heating hot water’. If your boiler works again after this reboot, you will know it because the light will continue to glow green. If your boiler is not working, you can hire a Gas Safe engineer.
