baumatic single fan oven b152ss

[adv]

hi fokes hope you are all well , got a red scratcher here . customer said burning food and temp light doesnt go out . looked on connect ,obsolete . so went and fitted a hotpoint/whirpool one fitted fine .. , but when i turn knob to oven ,the oven starts heating up and temp light comes on without turning the temp knob to anything .. if i turn the temp on thermostat down i can hear it clicking . but does not turn the temp light off or stop oven heating to full blast :confused:weird .. do the baumatic thermostats work a different way ?i brains fried . or is it a faulty new stat ?or it something like a over heat stat or something ? tried the 2 wires on both side of the thermostat still the same ? help 🙁

customer says original one never really made a clicking noise when turned it up or down :rolleyes: mmmm

ok try something

take one wire off the stat and see what happens as it should not heat. that will prove the circuit. you could do it with a multimeter to save turning it on

according to one of my sources it transposes to part no 49107216

connect have it for a mere £73 plus vat (ouch)

some stats close the contacts in the off postion to allow the grill to work again you cab check with a meter

ps have emailed you the wiring diagram as it will be easier to see than on here

hi mate am not that great with wiring diagrams tbh .. the old stat is always showing continuiaty .. and it doesnt click at all when turn it .. but is that because its faulty ? what do you think it is mate ?no one else has been at it ,, he said

if took one of wires of the thermostat it surely couldnt heat up ? that would be impossible not ?:rolleyes:

that why i said to take off oner wire
if it stops heating then you know its just a stat problem

well that proves the age of the house wiring as any modern system would blow the RCD
