Hello Guys.
I've got a Baxi 80 ECO which was fitted in December last year. My old boiler broke down 3 days before xmas so I had this Baxi fitted by a plumber at very short notice, it was second hand so had no warranty.
This problem is when I put hot water on or use shower it fires up, everything seems to run and lights OK. Then it cuts out after 5-10 seconds and fires back up and starts the cycle again. (The water gets warmish then go's cold). I've downloaded the manual and gone through the fault guide, the valves are operating, all connections are tight, the safety therm has not tripped, i've taken out the temp sensor and cleaned it (its reading k ohms on meter when disconnected - not sure what reading I should get in or out), I've cleaned the electrodes. (one does seem to be pointing differently to the other, but I don't what the gap should be??) I had a problem with boiler a few months ago and had a new diaphram fitted so i'm presuming (& hoping!) its not this. The CH is working OK.
I'm not a plumber or service engineer but i'm no numpty either, I will change water/electrical parts but won't touch the gas side of it!
Any help would be much appreciated........i'm fed up with boilers now!
Thanks, Frankie.
