Vokera Vibe fault A70
Flow sensor fault / flow sensor overtemperature / flow/return sensor differential
Gas boilerWhat it means
Combined code covering three alarm conditions: flow sensor fault (transitional), flow sensor overtemperature (definitive), and flow/return sensor differential fault (definitive).
Likely causes
- Flow sensor fault
- Overtemperature condition at flow sensor
- Excessive differential between flow and return sensor readings - possible poor circulation
- Faulty flow sensor
Where to start
- Check flow sensor wiring and resistance
- Check for overtemperature condition at flow sensor
- Compare flow and return sensor readings for abnormal differential

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.
