FAQ
Can I reset a Viessmann FC code myself?
Technically yes for FC, but it's strongly discouraged without diagnosis. A reset on an FC fault can cause gas accumulation in the burner if the combustion is faulty.
What's the difference between FC and FD Viessmann?
FC is the first lockout — the boiler can still be reset. FD is the definitive lockout after multiple resets on an FC fault. FD requires professional intervention.
What to do if I smell gas with FC or FD code?
1) Open windows. 2) Shut off the boiler gas valve. 3) Call 112. Do not attempt any reset and do not search for the leak yourself.
How long does an FC/FD Viessmann intervention take?
Diagnosis takes 30-60 minutes. If the LMU needs replacing, add 1-2 hours. Weber & Fils stocks parts for the most common Vitodens models.
