Vokera fault code 79

[odonose4]

Hello. Does anyone know what the fault code 79 means on a Vokera gas boiler. It was working fine until a week ago when the local town council decided to turn off the water to the town for repair work. I knew it was happening so I turned off the boiler beforehand. A few days later we noticed that it was not heating the water. I opened the valve to fill up the system until it read 1.8 bar. I also bled the boiler at the top of it incase of an airlock but I got water gushing out straight away. I have tried to turn off and reset the boiler as well but it always cuts out after about 30 seconds and displays fault code 79. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
