    Whirlpool built-in fan oven
    Type: FXUM6
    Model: AKZM 756/NB

    Hello….
    My whirlpool oven has started cutting out. This happens pretty quickly after being turned on when it has just started heating up (so it can’t have overheated at that point). The whole oven resets and has to be turned on again. This will happen more than once

    Also once the oven is heated the heating element seems to be going on and off more frequently than it used to (ie coming on just for a few seconds before you hear it click off).

    The oven still works and will eventually cook things fine but needs constant watching in case it randomly turns off.

    Would doing a DIY replacement of the heating element be a good idea or is it likely to be something else that needs an engineer to visit.

    Thanks for your help!

    Cooling fan or cooling fan control stat are where to start there.

    Not an element.
