HUD61G Top Oven not heating

[sheres]

Hi, some how I managed to knock the knob on the Hotpoint HUG61G. Three hours later when I got home I could smell something burning. There was nothing in the oven at the time. I was fortunate.

The seal was broken when I opened the door, I turned the oven off straight away. I opened the doors and switched it off. I left it to cool.

I tested the top oven today but it is not heating to temperature, the grill is getting warm but not as hot as it should be, the oven is not working. Bottom oven is fine and working as it should be. The top oven light is not coming on, this normally lights up when reaching temperature and then cuts off. The grill pilot lights comes on when turning the top oven on, but not the top oven pilot light.

I am not sure if both the lights used to come on when the top oven was switched on. The top oven pilot light would remain on untill the temperature would reach and then switch off.

Please advise.

Hi: To be honest, my best suggestion would be to call a reputable local appliance engineer to look at it for you. If you click on the search button at the top of the page, we may have an approved engineer local to you.
