Creda Wall Oven ESO 313 timer/controller issue

[Mitchell Schwartz]

The clock/timer is frequently cutting out and the display fades and flickers at a very low light level. I have to press the manual button several times for it to revert to normal, which may last many hours until it happens again. Is this indicative of a faulty timer control, or a fuse or an electrical power issue? If the timer needs to be replaced, how complex is this job, assuming the part is available? I would most likely hire a technician to repair this if possible.

well need more info to look up the cooker as I cant find the model

if its a simple timer then it can be bridged so the oven works without it

What other info is required? According to the product rating plate the model # is ESO 313 (the manual I have lists model # ESO 310/312). The serial # appears to be 62 E000042

well cant even find that model on google
trie ESO and ES0 both don’t bring up anything on any number

it very old

you can post a pic to try and help

There is file restriction size of 19 KB and my photo is larger much than this. Can the restriction be eliminated or increased a suitable amount to allow me to upload?

[electrofix]

I have no right to vary the size restriction but

post file on another site and post a public link

that makes sense now these early units are known by the 48 number so yours is model 48358

if it was a power issue I would expect it to go on and off while in use

it will be a simple clock and be very easy to bridge it but to able to tell you have I need to see a picture of the rear connections on the clock unit

you could pull the unit out and look at the terminal block and if its plugged into another socket try a 13a extension lead

OK, but can you provide more detailed info on how remove the unit, and instructions on how to jump the terminals to bypass the timer? I have a technician that can come to do the work, who is at least familiar with these appliances. I can coordinate the work so that we can catch you during work hours. But aside, knowing the model #, do you think a replacement timer is avialable?

[electrofix]

be a long shot on that one

to get parts info for these ovens have to set my computer back 19 years

unscrew the screws holding oven in housing ( round door )

pull oven out, remove top after first removing power

take some clear pic of the rear of the timer
should be able to work it out from there

[Mitchell Schwartz]

OK, I’ll try to do this and get back to you. Thanks for your help Dave.

[Mitchell Schwartz]

Dave, if I schedule to do this on Friday, are you available to answer us real time? Say around 2-2:30pm UK time?

[electrofix]

Dave

[Mitchell Schwartz]

OK,m perhaps I can schedule it a bit earlier on Friday, but to get you the photo by about 2:00pm. Is there another email I can reach you at?
Many thanks

[Mitchell Schwartz]

I should be able to get you a photo before 2pm on Friday. I hope that you will be available to respond around that time. Is there a direct email that we can use?

Thanks

[electrofix]

don’t check the email all the time maybe 3 or 4 times a day

will try to think on to set a reminder
