Baxi 238292BAX Pilot Assembly Kit

The Baxi 238292BAX Pilot Assembly Kit is a replacement pilot burner assembly manufactured by Baxi. The pilot assembly sits within the combustion circuit of a gas appliance and provides the small standing flame used to light the main burner, while its electrode and lead allow the ignition and flame-sensing circuit to confirm that a flame is present before the gas valve opens. It is supplied as a kit rather than a single component, so the burner, electrode and associated fixings arrive together for a straightforward swap on service.

• The pilot flame will not light, or lights and then goes out once the button or ignition sequence is released.
• The pilot flame burns weak, yellow or lifts away from the burner head instead of forming a steady blue flame.
• The appliance repeatedly locks out or reports an ignition fault during start-up.
• Soot deposits, corrosion or a cracked ceramic insulator are visible around the pilot burner or electrode.
• The appliance fires briefly and then shuts down shortly after the pilot is established, pointing to a weak flame signal.

• Check the part number on your appliance's data badge and in its installation and service documentation, as pilot assemblies vary between models and gas types.
• Inspect the pilot assembly gasket, seals and fixings when the old part is removed, and renew any that are damaged before refitting.
• This part is fitted to a gas appliance; installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
