We have an old, but well-looked after de dietrich W-3536 hob that has recently stared humming to itself, and we’ve just noticed that it also has a warm patch at the front in the centre of the hob (mid-way between the controls).
Is it on its way out, or is it in need of some sort of repair ? Hubby’s pretty competent electrically (ex air-force radar techie) so we’d be looking for spares available near to us (Wiltshire/Berkshire/Hampshire border) or by post.
I’d be very sad to lose it as it’s given us 8 years service & still looks good !
Any advice much appreciated.
Re: de dietrich hob dying ?
You’d have to open it up to see what’s up with it to be honest but make sure you get the power off it first. It does sound like a possible PCB fault though which won’t be cheap to replace.
Spares should be available okay given the age, beyond about ten years De Dietrich gets a touch dodgy on supply and sometimes sooner, but they ain’t cheap… not cheap at all. 😕
An email to spares@ukwhitegoods.co.uk should get a reply from Dave tomorrow.

Re: de dietrich hob dying ?
How quick was that – I’m sooooo impressed !!!
We’ll take it apart this weekend & have a look-see, but I have to hope that a replacement PCB MUST be cheaper than a replecment hob ? 😉
Is there somewhere reliable that we can order spares from ?
