Default Baxi Boiler 60/3rs

I have a Baxi Wall mounted boiler and over the last few days it starts
to heat up the water then cuts out. We have to relight the pilot light
then the boiler will start again for few minutes. Any suggestions
what the problem could be???

ok can you see the pilot, watch it for a while, does it lift off the
injector/outlet of gas?

if so call a corgi guy to fix it, you could well be dealing with
monoxide and all that stuff!

Hi

No the the pilot does not lift from the injector, the flame just goes
out after about 5 minutes

Are you saying that it's 3 years old ?

It should have electronic ignition

However it would be useful to know what model it is

Have you checked if the pump is still working? Could be it is
overheating due to lack of water flow.
