My baxi bahama 100 doesn't seem to be working properly. The pilot light is having trouble igniting. When the timer comes on the neon light says its alight for about 5 seconds and then goes onto the failer neon light. When I try to do it manually it can take anything upto 10 atempts to get it to stay alight. Any suggestions (of the non condesending variety) greatly appreciated!

Cheers for that Pete.
I have had someone look at it and I need a new circut board and a gas valve.
So... new boiler it is!
Just in time for Christmas, love it!!
Best Wishes

Hi Toni
Sorry to hear you are one of the few bahama 100 owners left.
The boiler has no pilot light but does cut out if it has not lit correctly.It has a flame sensor tha communicates with the cicuit board.
You will need to call sombody to sort this prob.
If you can though change the boiler it will cost you a lot in repairs and a new one will save you gas.
Sorry about the bad news.
