VerifiedHi my name is ***** ***** lets see if we can get you sorted in the shortest possible time.
F9 is a fault for low water pressure.
If the gauge is showing 2 bar then the gauge is either stuck or the low pressure switch is stuck.
You should drain the boiler and take out both connections and clean them and see if it clear the fault, if not then you should change the low pressure switch
