ParticipantHi. I’d be grateful if you could give me some advice on a Lamona fan assisted oven, LAM 3301. When the oven is operated in fan oven mode, it is no longer heating up correctly, i.e. It doesn’t reach a hot enough temperature. This seems to be because the grill element is not coming on when operating in fan oven mode. The instructions manual says there should be top and bottom heat plus fan when operating in fan mode, so I assume the grill element should come on but isn’t.
However, when the oven is operated in grill mode, the grill element seems to work fine and heats up properly.
I had originally assumed I needed a new grill element, but the problem seems related to the operating mode selected rather than the element itself.
Does anyone know whether this would be a problem with the element itself or something else?
Thanks!

the grill element has 2 parts. An outer and an inner element. when the oven is used only the outer element comes on and it helped by another element under the oven floor
turn the oven on with the door open. see if the outer grill element is getting hot at the same time feel the oven floor to see if that also is getting warm

Hi. Thanks very much for your quick reply:
– in Grill mode, both the inner and outer parts of the grill element were definitely coming on.
– in Fan oven mode, the bottom element was on, the inner grill element was definitely off, and I’m not sure about the outer element (can’t check because I’m not at the property at the moment)Would there be a third type of element in this model, a round one at the back which fits around the fan and it is this that has gone? The fan was covered by the back plate so I didn’t check at the time.
Many thanks

according to the diagrams there are only 3 elements. 2 as part of the grill and 1 below the floor
so no round elementDave

there will be a switch on the oven control, it switches the elements on and off as reqd
check that switch for burnt or defective contacts
