NEFF 1031-SP – Grill not working

[TP]

Hi,
I recently became the owner of a built-in NEFF oven when I purchased my first house (perhaps not great timing, considering the economic situation at the moment!). However, what the previous owner neglected to tell me was that the grill doesn’t work. :rolls:

I’ve checked the resistance of the element. 22 Ohms (2700W element) sounds right to me, so this isn’t the problem. I’ve also checked for voltage at the element socket… No live found.

Does anyone know a probable cause for this before I remove the whole oven from the built-in cupboards to investigate further? Are there some more quick checks I can perform before I go delving into the depths of the back of the oven?

The oven’s E-Nr. is B1120W1GB/03.

Thanks in advance,
Tony

DO NOT TEST LIVE ❗

You should disconnect the appliance and check the circuit through with a multimeter…..you’ve proved the heater….i’d expect to possibly find an overheat thermalfuse/safety stat and the on/off switch (with /without a working stat or even a “simmerstat” type switch…..but basically it’s likely to be a simple series chain of components……it could even be a wire come off!

does sound as though you’ll need to take it out of the housing, to get access, though.

This is just an opinion, I’m not a professional! 😛
