Baxi solo 2 70 pf problem

[stings27]

Evening all.
Have encountered a problem with neighbours boiler and wondering if one of you out there could help me.
When the programmer is turned on , everything seems in order. ‘Boiler on’ lights up, ‘fan on’ lights up, ‘pilot on’ lights up then burner on.
After around 5 minutes, the boiler cuts out.
When the programmer is then turned off, the ‘pilot on’ light is faintly illuminated for about half hour. This then goes off, programmer then switched back on and the cycle repeats.
Thanks in advance for any replies.

See what voltage your getting when off bet it’s around 50-70v

Ghost voltage?

Does the cycle happen no matter what’s calling?

Ok thanks. Will try tomorrow. Thought at first it might be a pump issue as neighbour says it sounded ‘a bit rough’ maybe not getting heat out of boiler quick enough ?

Is it shutting down as overheated?

Normally would overheat faster than 5 mins could be getting weak

Ghost voltage?

Yes hence why most now require a suppressor on the switch live
