Sorry MrDill,

I was typing my reply and posted and missed your post. I would never intentionally ignore someone. Especially when offering help and advice.

Re: Diplomat electric oven stopped working

I think Louis has latched on to what Japanese Bob has said and is now convince that a thermal trip has gone within the oven. Whilst all the while ignoring the fact that both the gas hob and oven failed at the same time. That effectively rules out any thermal trip problems, even more so as a faulty thermal trip wouldn’t cause to oven timer to also go out. Purely conjecture on my part as Louis has not been too forthcoming toward answering all the vital questions we have asked and is currently wandering up the wrong garden path. 😉

Hi Martin,

I have took advice and called oven engineer. He was saying the same as you and Mr Dill, it sounds like a local electrical fault.

I will not order any parts and await his diagnosis of fault.

Asked to recheck consumer board for trip and isolation switch. Which I did and its still not working.

Martin I thought I did answer questions? Which did I miss?

Thanks
Louis

The one asking if the separate gas hob and oven failed at the same time?

Here’s another one for you………..Does the oven AND hob share the same power outlet or are they on separate supplies?

Re: Diplomat electric oven stopped working

Yes they went and same time and both share same power supply.

I recalled my electrician and he came back. When he pulled out oven and found it was a loose wire. I feel so stupid 🙁

Thanks everyone for all your help and advice. You have saved me going out and buying a new oven.

Re: Diplomat electric oven stopped working

As I advised in my first reply a mains power supply fault.

I advised if the mains was not at fault then the fault would be a thermal cut out on this model.

I hope your electrician did not charge for a second visit as this sounds like he did not carry out a full test you had called him for.

Unfortunately been at work tonight so no cooking.

But my famous slow cooked baby back ribs will be coming out this week that’s for sure.

And no he didn’t charge me again. Result.

Thanks again to all who offered help. Forums like these are few and far between. Thank you.
