Morning all,
I’m turning to the white goods forums, as we have an issue with a built in Siemens Hob; ET79054EU/01.
I have attempted to replace the main fast element, however, there was no wiring instructions with the element (and it appears there has been a modification).
After connecting the new element, and turning on the hob there was a bang – looks like the PCB has blown.
Has anyone had any experience wiring these new elements? We are now going have to purchase a new PCB (at £250!) to repair this Siemens hob… but with no wiring diagram still, I don’t want the same thing to happen!
Regards,
Mike
Re: Siemens Built In Hob – Help!
wiring info for siemans is not easy to come by.
i have not seen the new elements but from the diagrams i think i know what you have done. The connection on the stats on the ring are in a different orientation and when you connected it you caused a short circuit
from what you say the circuit board has had a short circuit. since i assume these rings will be relay controlled it may be possible to repair the board and replace the relay. depends on how much damage you have done
there is also a risk you have damaged the overheat stat of the new ring
if you post pictures it might help to decide
