This error means your Navien water heater has detected a problem that prevented normal operation. Read below for the cause and fix.
The flame ignited but extinguished during the heating cycle. Causes include gas pressure fluctuation, a dirty burner assembly, or a failing gas valve.
Check gas supply. If other appliances work normally, the issue is internal — call us for diagnosis. Common during high-demand periods when SoCal Gas pressure fluctuates.
To reset your Navien after E012: press and hold the power button for 3 seconds until the unit powers off, then press again to restart. Important: if the error code returns after reset, the underlying problem has not been resolved and the unit needs professional repair.
