Possibly it could be because the Pump has stopped functioning and thus water not circulating around system and getting very hot around Boiler Pipes and kicking itself off.

Preassure does not need to be as high as 2 bar. You set your peassure depening on the size of your heat exchanger.
Most combis work as low as 0.5bar.
Check manufactures instructions.
with the little information you give, It would be pointing towards your pump.
Post a job on here for a Gas Safe engineer and he/she will come and sort it out.
