How to repressurize my Baxi boiler?

[Jessica Carton]

Hello,

I have a problem with my Baxi boiler. Error message 118. Pressure: 0. The instruction says I should repressurize it.

Could you please explain me how to do it?

Attached you can find photos of the boiler.

Just to let you know I am blonde, so please step by step instructions 😉 (I can't call the plumber because of coronavirus)

have you tried slightly undoing / turning the blue nob valve on the underside of the boiler?

Thank you for reply!

Yes, I have. It started heating up and the pressure went to 3, but now the water is dripping. Is it supposed to be like that till the pressure normalizes?

did you shut the blue nob when it went upto 1-1.5 bar like the instructions say ? or did you leave it open

do you have a rad bleed key if you do drain a bit out of a rad until its around 1-1.2 bar
