BAXI SOLO 2 50 PILOT KEEPS GOING OUT

[walto90]

the pilot is fine until the burner kicks in then more often than not the pilot goes out virtually straight away.if you look through the veiwer the pilot seems to go out from the back to the tip but sometimes it will stay on and be fine.
any help please.

 

[ChrisR]

just needs a service, probably

 

[walto90]

been told it could be the gas valve?

 

[corgiman]

no thats not the reason

as chris says get some one to service it properly

 

[sime10]

New pilot assembly

 

[walto90]

THNXS LADS

but it seems like the pilot is being blown out from the tip of the assembly as you can still see the tip alight.is there any way it could be a draft blowing on it or something from the burner.

sorry if this sounds daft
cheers

again GET IT SERVICED PROPERLY

Baxi solo 2. Pilot light right hand sidehalf way back ? , held in a housing that can be a pain to get out. Once main burner comes on it pulls flame away as you describe caused by partial blockage and pilot needs coming right out for cleaning not just blown at
