Lamona oven fascia removal

Re: Lamona oven fascia removal

Pull the oven out and the top panel should come off, it should then be obvious.

pull it out of the housing ,look at the top panel and it should be obvious what holds it on you do need a certain level of practicality to do it though,i.e. be able to use a screwdriver

Re: Lamona oven fascia removal

Look behind either side of the facia ,may be 2 screws facing forwards ,remove them and facia will come off revealing screws,lid should just have screws

I have the same make and model and just managed to replace the thermostat, which I ordered on amazon for £15.

Just incase someone finds it useful, I’ll share how I did it, because it certainly wasn’t an easy job and took me a good four hours. I don’t think it has been designed for simple access to the thermostat.

Start by removing the top and side panels. Unscrew the whole fascia piece.
You will see that the thermostat unit is screwed into the fascia but the screws are on the other side and enclosed by the front oven panel.
To remove the thermostat unit you need to remove this top panel off the fascia. There are no screws for removing this thing, nor does it slide off! This bloody thing has been welded onto the fascia in 6 places, 3 at the top and 3 at the bottom. Failing all else, I took a pair of heavy duty side cut pliers and cut through the metal strips that hold the panel to the fascia. This was tough work but I did get through eventually and managed to remove the panel, and accessed the unit which I then replaced. Make sure it is the right way up by test fitting the knob, as the slightly different wire configuration led to me putting it in upsidedown.

I should point out that feeding the thermostat wire piece through to the back of the oven was also very challengling, as access at the back of the unit is limited. To do this I basically had to unscrew the back panel off by finding the screws inside of the oven. This allowed me to pull the rear panel back just far enough to access the metal holder which holds the thermostat inside of the oven (but I was unable to remove this panel in full because of all the wiring). Unscrew the metal holder from the rear and then thread it through the back of the oven, removing the old thermostat and replacing it with the new one, then reinserting it back through into the oven and screw it back in.

Probably the most frustrating job I’ve ever done, GL to anyone who tries this.
