Worcester Bosch C6 error code

Fan speed too low

The boiler's fan isn't turning fast enough, so the boiler has stopped.

Worth repairing?

It can be as simple as a loose connector, but a new fan or control board costs more, so ask for a price first.

Can you do it yourself?

Engineer only

Engineer visit

Before you start

  • Never take the boiler's cover off. Anything inside is a job for a Gas Safe registered engineer.

What to check, in order

  1. Don't try to fix it yourself

    Worcester's manual says not to try to put C6 right yourself.

  2. Call a Gas Safe registered engineer

    Tell them the code on the display.

When to call a Gas Safe engineer

Worcester's service booklet lists a loose fan connector, a mains voltage outside tolerance, a damaged fan cable, a failed fan or a faulty control board.

A repair visit will usually check the fan, its wiring and the flue.

Before you book
  • Note the model and serial number. They're on a label on the data badge, usually under the boiler or behind the front cover.
  • Write down the exact code, and what the appliance was doing when it appeared.
  • Check whether it's still under warranty. If it is, the repair may cost you nothing.
