You could turn the pressure up by opening the tap which allows water in to the boiler. Pressure needs to be at least 1 i/2 on the gauge

Hi There,

I have the exact same problem. From what I can tell it is either the flame sensor that has stopped working or a lack of pressure.

On mine, the pressure gauge needle is almost zero and the red pin (the marker of where it should be I presume) is at 2 bar.

Let me know if you get any help!
