Vaillant PCB Control VMW 28 362 5 Turbotec Plus ES 28 362 Ref. 0020034604
The Vaillant Control PCB VMW 28 362 5 Turbotec Plus ES 28 362, with reference 0020034604, is responsible for controlling the ignition, burner modulation, pump, and safety features of the boiler. When it fails, the boiler may not start, become locked, or exhibit erratic operation, potentially displaying faults such as F.61, F.62, F.63, F.64, or F.65. This part is compatible with different boiler models, including the VMW, VM, and VMI ranges, such as the VMW 240/2-3, VM 240/2-5, and VMI 280-7, among others. It is recommended to replace the PCB when it shows the mentioned operational faults.

How to check if ref. 0020034604 is the part for your boiler
What determines it is not the boiler model, but the reference printed on the part you already have installed.
- Find the reference printed on the installed part and check whether it matches the catalogue reference 0020034604. If it is not visible, do not identify the part from its shape alone.
- Check the full boiler model on its data plate and look for it in the model associations on this page.
- Compare the connections and physical body with the original part before installation.
- If anything is unclear, send us a photo of the marking via WhatsApp before placing your order.
Symptoms and faults that the PCB 0020034604 resolves.
The PCB controls the ignition, modulation, and safety features of the boiler. These are the typical symptoms and what to do:
Common symptoms and faults
- 01
The boiler turns on, runs for a few minutes, and then stops on its own, displaying a different fault code each time.
Cause: The output relays on the PCB intermittently fail and trigger lockouts that do not always point to the same component.
Write down the codes that appear in several cycles; if it's always the same, suspect the component indicated by that specific code first.
- 02
There is no symbol on the screen or indicator light on, the boiler seems to have no power.
Cause: The low current stage that powers the control circuits of the PCB may be damaged.
Measure with a multimeter if mains voltage is reaching the PCB before replacing it.
- 03
The pump or the fan do not start when the boiler calls for heat, although the rest of the sequence seems normal.
Cause: The PCB is not delivering the output signal to these components, even though it internally registers the cycle as correct.
Manually force the pump or the fan, if your model allows it, to rule out the possibility that the fault is with them and not with the PCB.
- 04
The boiler makes several ignition attempts in a row, with a sparking noise, before locking out.
Cause: The PCB retries the cycle because it does not receive flame confirmation and exhausts the allowed attempts.
Check the flame detection electrode and its connection to the corresponding connector on the PCB before replacing it.
Fault codes from Vaillant that this part resolves.
| Code | Fault | Diagnosis and solution |
|---|---|---|
| F.63 | EEPROM error: fault in the configuration memory of the boiler's electronics. | The EEPROM physically resides on this main PCB; if the memory becomes corrupted or fails, the cause is the board itself. Verify: after a reset, the code persists and, with correct connections and sensors, the fault reproduces; confirm replacement of the board. |
| F.64 | Electronics error / NTC: fault in the electronics or short circuit in the flow/return NTC sensors. | When a short circuit in the NTC is ruled out (by checking sensors and wiring with a multimeter), the fault in the electronics processing those signals points to this main PCB. Verify: NTC and connections are correct but the fault code persists after reset = defective PCB. |
| F.65 | Temperature error in the electronics: the PCB is overheating. | The temperature sensor of the electronics itself detects excess heat on the PCB; if an external heat source or lack of ventilation is ruled out, the origin is a defect in the PCB. Verify: normal environment/ventilation but the code repeats = faulty PCB. |
| F.61 | Fault in the regulation/activation of the gas valve: the electronics cannot control the gas valve. | The PCB is the one that controls the gas valve; with wiring to ground, short circuit, and the valve itself ruled out using a multimeter, the remaining documented cause is the PCB. Verify: wiring and valve coils are correct but the code persists = defective PCB (the PCB is one of the causes, not the only one). |
| F.62 | Gas valve error due to delayed shutdown: delayed disconnection of the gas valve detected. | The PCB manages the closing/timing of the valve and the electrode signal; with the valve and detection electrode ruled out, the control electronics defect points to this PCB. Verify: valve and electrode are correct but the code repeats = PCB (concurrent cause with valve/electrode). |
These symptoms can have more than one cause. If your boiler displays a fault code, send it to us via WhatsApp along with a photo of the labeling, and we'll tell you if this is the part.
