E119 on a Baxi means the water pressure in the heating system is too low for the boiler to run. Check the gauge: cold, you are usually looking for around one bar, and the manual gives the exact figure. Top up with the filling loop as the manual describes, then reset. If it needs doing again soon, the question is where the water is going.
What's involved

Baxi E119 Fault Code in Coventry, done properly

Look before you fill

Note the reading first. A slow drift down over months is normal; a drop in days is a leak.

The filling loop

Baxi boilers use a filling loop or a built-in key. Open slowly, stop at the right pressure, close it fully.

Outside the house

A dripping pipe through the wall usually means the relief valve or expansion vessel, not a leak inside your walls.

Stopping it recurring

Finding the leak once costs less than the corrosion that months of refilling causes.

Good to know

Baxi E119 Fault Code — your questions

Is E119 dangerous?

No, low pressure only stops the boiler running. Smell gas? Leave the house, do not use switches, and call the National Gas Emergency line on 0800 111 999. A fault code is never a gas leak, but a smell always is.

I topped up and it still shows E119.

Reset after filling. If it persists with a good pressure reading, the pressure sensor itself may be the fault.

Is it worth fixing an old Baxi?

Usually, for a pressure fault - it says little about the rest of the boiler.
