Oven element blowing every 6 months!

[CherryD]

Indesit oven element is blowing every 6 months, we keep replacing but figure there must be another problem with it. Driving me mad now, any ideas?

What’s a gen element?

[electrofix]

made by the manufacturer of the appliance and not a copy part

No, it was a replacement part (one of many we’vehad!, not bought from the manufacturer. Its an indesit, model IFW 6330 WH UK.

this is a genuine part. I find them more reliable

check the fan motor is free to turn as if it runs too slow the element overheats
