the pilot light of the boiler is going out after around 6 seconds off water turned on, the started after the main radiator in living room was bled of air, it was making a lot of noise. althought the pilot is going off the main blue light is stying on. this has happened before when the radiators were bled but it was resolved when the boiler was turned off for some time then it was working fine.
worchester 24i junior boiler pilot light going off
- Thread starter comer0161
- Start date
Makes no sense at all as the junior does not have a pilot (Electric ignition)
mistake, the ignition light
Missed the bleeding part.
On the front you have a pressure guage that goes from 0 t 4 what does it read?
If less than 1 put it to 1.5 via your filling loop.

please could you explain where the filling loop is located thanks
Firstly what is your guage reading?
Plus no filling loop you should have a key(MY BAD) but i wont go to that till you till me your gauge reading
the gauge reeding is 0, i do have a key
Right put the key in (hole beside white Nob under boiler) East to west as you look at it but it must go all way in.
Once happy its all way in (If its not its water every where) turn clockwise so it faces North to south, once in this position turn white nob anti clockwise until at 1.5 on gauge and hey presto hot water again.

key is underneath follow instructions in book, theres a little black square nob that turns and opens up the mains into the system fill to 1.5 and then re-bleed the rads and fill again if necessary the pressure drops in the system when you release air from rads.
loads of thanks!!!, hot water and radiators come through and a lot faster.
