Hello all. I have a baxi boston 2 60-rs and never had any problems up until recently. For the first time my gas ran out (i forgot to top up) and ever since then my boiler wont kick in. I can light the pilot light no problem and it stays on, the pump above is still spinning and eveything seems normal apart from that. Im thinking it must be something minor for it to be ok one minute, then gas cut off and now it wont boot up. And yes, i have put more gas back on! :p

Thanks in advance if you could advise. Cheers.

Has the grey knob come right out.

Turn the boiler thermostat to off and wait 3 mins to reset the valve, and it should work.

It will click when ready.

Well it hadnt, i didnt notice that! I'v pulled it out now and put the thermostat to off, just waiting now for it to "click" Not heard anything yet?

Cheers.

It's still not clicked after about 10minutes. I'v tried turning the thermostat but still with no joy...:(

Any other ideas?

Thanks

Is the pilot alight

Turn the thermostat to off, and light the pilot, after 3mins turn the thermostat up and it should work.

yeah mate it is. Tried it a few times and still no joy, arrg! :(

Ok try it another way.

Turn the stat to off, then turn the grey knob to extinguish the pilot.

Wait 3-4 mins and relight the pilot, make sure the knob comes right out.

I assume this is on LPG?

If so go and check your UPSO at the regulator

Tried the alternative way, still nothing :(

I dont know if it is LPG or not..What is the UPSO ? And where is the regulator? Im a complete novice at boilers etc :s

Thanks in advance!

Don't think they made the Boston for LPG Dave.

I took it to read the pre-payment card had run out.

It is a mains gas

Give the gas valve a gentle tap with a hammer handle.

And don't whack it, or you'll need a new one

Which is the gas valve? lol. Iv already got gas running you see through the cooker and i imagine the boiler as the pilot light stays lit?

Thanks in advance

Yes but the main valve isn't opening.

Are you sure the electric is turned on and programed to work

Turn it all on to 24hrs.
