Hi All I have Baxi Solo 2 50 PF boiler. About a month back there was puddle of water under the boiler and I assumed that it came from the exhaust vent of the boiler because of torrential rains. The boiler was not starting at the time. I took out the PCB and saw some water drops on it...

Hi Kev Sorry to bother again. After adjusting the lever on the diverter valve yesterday today morning when the water heating started the Ch also got switched on and radiators were hot. The CH timer setting was on off, only the HW was on the timer. Do I need to change the setting again...

Hi Kev Thank you for your inputs. I moved the liver to the right and then moved it to the left again and the CH and WH are both working now. Thank you for your advice is very much appreciated. I will get the boiler check and I think it is time to take out the annual contract...

Hi kev Thanks for your prompt response. I located the a three position diverter valve in the airing cupboard. it is from honeywell. It has one lever in front and is on the left side. What should I do with it. Regards Pav

Hi We have Baxi Solo 2 50 PF boiler. I wanted to test our central heating today to make sure it is working fine for the winters. I switched on the timer (EPS6002) to on position and boiler did not start. None of the lights on the boiler thermostat indicator would turn on (over heat...

Dave You have been a saviour. I climbed up the attic and found that ball was stuck at the bottom and the tank was empty. I moved the ball up and down few times and the water got filled up in the tank. I came down and bled all the radiators. This time all of them bled in no time. I started...

Gas4you Thank you for your response. I will clean the fan venturi and aps pipes. One more thing I would like to mention is that every time that we have this problem; the boiler not firing, always with one off and on next time it works. We do not have to wait or switch the boiler on off...

Hi Gas4you I took the PCB out today while still connected to the power. I switched the boiler on and it did not fire. I tapped the black relay on the PCB still it did not fire. Please note that I did not hear the flint/spark click to suggest that spark is not being produced. Normally the...

I'm not sure if he did clean the mentioned items, his invoice only mentions fixed price repair and safety gas check complete. I looked at the boiler and PCB is not accessible, can you please advise how can I can tap it when the problem occurs. Thank you

Hi Tony Thank you for your response. The boiler was serviced 4 months back by Baxi. I however do not have extended warranty cover. I have already got one local guy come in to check the problem. As the problem is intermittent I was not be able to replicate it when the engineer was visiting...
