belling free standing cooker

Re: belling free standing cooker

dont know this model but

assume you are talking ceramic ring and not halogen

most elements either work or they dont so most likely to be control use a multimeter and test ring

if it is a single circuit plate you could swop live on controllers to see if fault moves to another plate

if a simmerstat is used make sure you have a quiet room. turn cooker on and listen closely for simmerstat going in and out you will probably get a buzz from ring as it is powerered up. on full power the simmerstat will not click on and off

hope this helps
