Problems with Baxi Boiler and interrupted Gas supply or flame fault?

Hi all,I've had my boiler now for almost 20 months, and over the past two or three weeks, I've had a fault code E133, which means Interruption Of Gas Supply or Flame Failure. I was wondering what the problem could be or what the potental cost is?

I have not seen your boiler before, but, normally they all operate on the same principles. first go to wherever the boiler is, turn off power and turn back on, watch to see if the burners light, if they do and go back out after a few seconds, you most likely have a dirty flame sensor, which is a metal rod that sticks into the flame, you would need to pull this and clean metal surfaces with a dollar bill, something non abrasive, now, if your boiler doesnt light, you could have a bad ignitor, typically, if your watching it and you hear a click and gas comes out and no flame, that would be the scenario, and you could proabably get one locally, or get one from your local contractor. contact me if i can help any further, hope this helps
You dont say what model your boiler is which may have helped as different models have slightly different operating systems but you do say its about 20 months old so has it been serviced in that time as if not it would support the idea of either a dirty electrode or possibly a dirty burner and the electrode is not in the flame properly so the boiler doesnt know its alight so it goes to lockout ie E133.
