Baxi boiler showing E125 or E160 in Brownhills? What each usually means, what is safe to look at yourself, and why these two need an engineer more often than most.
Read the E125 page. The boiler heated up faster than it should, which suggests water is not flowing. Pump, sludge or pressure.
Read the E160 page. The boiler could not confirm the fan was running at the right speed, so it will not light.
The code, when it first appeared, and whether it comes on straight away or after running a while. Timing helps narrow it down.
Baxi publishes a full list in each manual. Match your model badge first, as code tables differ between ranges.
The code means the boiler stopped to protect itself. Gas smells are the danger: open no switches, go outside and dial 0800 111 999.
Both usually point at a part that is worn or blocked. A reset clears the message, not the cause.
Age alone does not decide it. Parts availability and the condition of the heat exchanger matter more, and an engineer can tell you honestly.
