overheating fan oven

[mrcrow]

my homark fan oven is burning food on one side of the oven
i have replaced the fan element recently
the thermostat light goes off and on at varying settings ok…:?
we set the oven at 175 which could be too high for cakes
if its a thermostat problem can anyone advise how i should replace it
i know i can buy the spares from the shop as i have for elements in the past
hope the turkey doesnt get hot turkey this next week.. 😀
all the best to the boss and the rest of the forum
cheers

thanks Penguin45
when it is daylight i am going to remove the back shield and look at the element and surrounding area for any problems there
i think although the stat indicator light is going off as the temperature rises the actual temperatures could be not quite as the settings say

cant really see how to get the front panel off..there are two little humps on the top but no screws underneath …so i guess its ‘clipped’ on with the two humps as locating points??

can you comment on that

Re: overheating fan oven

Probably a couple of screws from the back – all will be obvious with the top off.

Random cycling and heat errors is definitley a thermostat problem. It’s a gas capliiary gadget, so it’s probably lost some gas.

Re: overheating fan oven

It’s a built-in oven isn’t it? Remove from housing, remove top panel.

Re: overheating fan oven

thanks again
i can see 2 screws on each flange down the front screwed into the kitchen unit.
when i remove these i suspect the casing will pull out
didnt think i would need to go to all that extent
but it may help me to learn some more new skills
cheers

will tackle this later
god bless and happy christmas…the real one
cheers
