Baxi 130HE Thermostat Overheat Problems. ?

Hi,
I have a Baxi 10 HE Combi boiler and other that the usual burner box replacement i have had no troubles with it, until now! When the heating is on it is fine and runs normally, but when i then run a bath it trips out after about 5 minutes, showing LE on the display. I have replaced the thermostat and it is still doing it. Any ideas are most welcome.

Not an answer I'm afraid, I have the same problem, various parts, including 2 combustion chamber doors replaced as the seal had perished, by Baxi Engineers, under a servicing and repair agreement. Latest and 4th repair lasted 3 days, showing LE again, although it will come on again for a few hours after cooling down. Can someone explain some more about cause of problem (condensor trap?) so I argue authoritatively with Baxi before another ineffective repair. Thanks in anticipation

hi there,,i am not a technician, but do have a 130he, and am presently sat in my house with no heating or hot water,,, my 130he did exactly the same, run a bath, then displays LE ( fan overun ),,,it then started to display Ld.... and finally went bang and now displays LO ( burner lockout ).. the engineer has come out today,,to show me that the Burner is destroyed and needs replacing.. the problem is a chain of events, condensor trap full of limescale, this lead to overheating, burner door seal to perish, die and allow air into the burner box, then Boom!! no more burner..
My advise, get some one to it soon to check it out..
good luck
