Ariston E34 Problem - Desperate!!!!?

Hello all

We have an Ariston ACO 32 MFFI and it has been nothing but a problem since day one (now 6 years old). We now constantly get the E34 error code and the boiler makes a very worrying grumbling sound.
Had the air pressure switch replaced first 2 weeks ago - lasted hours then E34 problem returned! Now had the fan renewed last week. Lasted a day and the E34 came back on loud as ever!
What else could be the cause of this ongoing problem?
Thanks all in advance.

Had this problem today. Error e34 making very loud noise when fan kicked in. Turned out to be a simple problem of condensate blocked at bottom of combustion chamber. Carefully took front off with water Hoover as quite a bit of water had built up. Drained and cleared blockage and now boiler runs fine. Hope this helps
