Always amazes me how long those things do last, when you think of their
environment. I'd have thought in these days of expensive energy, anything
that relied on a pilot light might have been modified to use a spark igniter
or the system replaced with a more modern device.

Hi Denis, I have a baxi Brazilia(manual). The pilot light comes on when
using the trigger, but when releasing trigger the pilot light goes off.
I've lived in property for 14years & have never had this problem before.
Hope you can help.



Possibly a thermocouple failure and/or you are not holding the pilot
light trigger on long enough for the thermocouple to be heated up by the
pilot light. Manually hold the pilot light on for 60 seconds before
releasing.


I think after 14 years he very probably knows the correct sequence for
lighting. ;-). Almost certainly the thermocouple.
