Hi, The grill on my Indesit gets to temperature then cuts out and wont properly reheat after! I suspect its the thermostat but does anyone know where it is located? perhaps there is a service manual for this model?
Thanks Carl.
Re: Indesit FIM21KBWH Grill cutting out!
PS i think the model number in the subject is wrong, I cant find the number on my unit so i used google images but after closer inspection noticed that the model i found is very close to mine but the controls work slightly differently so mine will be an older model to that. I suspect the thermostat to be similar though.
Re: Indesit FIM21KBWH Grill cutting out!
First of all THIS will answer your question re service manuals.
That is a recognised model number BTW.
It sounds as though the the grill regulator is faulty.
Sadly the official parts identification software that the Indesit Company charge the trade around £70 every six months to use does not show any of the regulators on the diagram or in the parts list, only the oven stat. :con: Is the grill controlled by the same switch as the main oven?
Re: Indesit FIM21KBWH Grill cutting out!
Yes i think it is iadom, there are 2 controls one on the left controls ovan temp until you pass the 8 o clock position it then clicks to a position that turns on the grill. The right hand control controls the grill temp, when turned on the grill initially comes on, it then cuts out and sometimes when i fiddle with the temp control it reheats for seconds before cutting out again!
Re: Indesit FIM21KBWH Grill cutting out!
Hmmm, if the main oven functions correctly then it suggests the thermostat is OK.It is more likely to be a bad contact inside the oven selector switch TBH.
Both parts not that expensive.
Control switch is a C00084790 around £23
Oven stat is a C00145486 approx £17An email to spares@ukwhitegoods.co.uk should get you sorted.

Thanks for your reply
I just tested it now and what happened is.. I turned on the grill with the left switch and turned the right switch to max, it heated up for 5 minutes and cut out as though up to temp, it then cuts back in after 5 minutes and so on..
This looks more likely temp control related does it not?Also worth noting is when the grill has cut out I try turning the grill switch off and back on with nothing happening.
Re: Indesit FIM21KBWH Grill cutting out!
I would think that the main oven stat is OK if the main oven performs correctly .
The parts diagram appears to show another ‘overheat’ stat but as I have no access to wiring diagrams I cannot tell if this would cause the grill to cut out.

Ok thanks for your help, I found that overheat stat on espares so I will locate it inside my oven and route all wiring too and from. Thanks again.
