What’s the problem with the Baxi Bermuda 552 back boiler?

Customer reported that the gas valve on this Bermuda 552 back boiler would lock out. Following the lighting instructions they could re-light the pilot which would stay alight until they turned up the boiler thermostat to make the main burner light. The main burner would light up but then shut down, locking out the gas valve.

Why did my Baxi inset 3 boiler lock out?

On mine the horizontal flame wasn’t lighting (you can see this through the window on the right side of the boiler under the fire) so the boiler didn’t know the pilot was lit, hence it locks out (red light). I got this repaired and it has been fine since.

Why does my Baxi Bermuda 551 make a roaring noise?
