The ovens stopped heating but all else is OK and I guess my element has expired. I feel confident in the procedure for changing an oven element. However, whilst the back plate of my free standing slot in only has 4 securing screws, there is another device, possibly a thermostat, preventing me from removing the back plate to expose the elements. The object is circular, about 1.5 inches in diameter and half an inch deep.
Any suggestions welcome.

Re: Creda Fan Oven not working
When you say backplate, do you mean the backplate at the rear ‘outside’ of the oven, or the back panel inside? The thermostat is a long pencil thin tube with a fine capillary leading out of the oven cavity. Sometimes it is clipped to the inner back panel but I don’t think it is on this model. What you may be describing is the glass cover for the internal bulb. It is a a normal threaded screw fit, just unscrew it and inner back panel will come away.
Element is available from the Shop@

I’ve just realised what it is. I think its the oven light. Because its absolutely covered with hardened black crud, it wasn’t obvious.
Do I remove this first or does it come forward when I release the backplate?
