Answer 1

If your Vaillant is a Ecotec model F.32 means 'fan speed variation' fault. According to troubleshooting guide, causes could be;

Fan blocked

plug not inserted correctly on fan

hall sensor defective

fault in cable harness

electronics defective

Try the simple ones first. You have a quality boiler as long as its been installed correctly. Vaillant technical helpline is always helpful

Answer 2

You should have the installation instructions for your boiler. If not get then from Vaillant's website. Say you are an installer if the question arises. Therein you will see all the fault codes and what they indicate. You still may need your plumber but you may be better informed, which is always useful.

If you have lost confidence in the 'plumber' try British Gas Services. They are about the best and have access to spares that other firms can only dream of.

Answer 3

f.32 is a fan fault, you will need an engineer, S .2 means the pump is running. hope this helps :) :) :)
