Baxi 80E piolot light error

[g0hwc]

Hi all,
I have a Baxi 80E about 7 years old and the last 3 days it keeps coming
up with piolot light warning led flashing and system shuts down.
If I re start the boiler its fine for anything from 30mins to 2 hours.

Any pointers ?
flame sensing electrode ?

Many thanks for your time

Paul

Well thats not a lot of help!

We all do things in life that we should not do
My house, my boiler, my problem to fix.
If you can't help keep it ZIPPED

Thats me told!, its idiots like you that cause accidents.

Easy fix on that boiler, but with an attitude like that to a perfectly good question about your qualifications to safely repair your boiler and not endanger anyone else, I doubt you'll get any further help. Goodbye.

Well if its a easy fix and I was safe registered I would not be asking
the question. Just asking a basic question and being asked back my boot size!

Many thanks for your help guys

Why not do the obvious thing and call an RGI like everyone else?

As you are posting here you will have read and accepted the forum rules and as you are aware we are not allowed to give advice on DIY gas work!

If anyone did it would just get deleted!

What was wrong?, out off curiousity.

Is this or is it not a DIY forum? Civility costs nothing.

It is a DIY forum but for obvious reasons that does not extend to DIY gas work.

Same as medical health forums dont advise on DIY surgery.

The fault in this case was a DIY job!
it turned out to be a problem at the flu
outside the house

Thanks any way
