Rangemaster platewarmer not getting hot

[JagNutter73]

Hi,

I have a Rangemaster 110 Gas Range Cooker with a platewarmer. When the platewarmer is switched on, the word “HOT” lights up orange on the platewarmer itself. However, it does not get even warm.

Is this a common fault? How easy is it to get the platewarmer off?

Apologies but I don’t have part numbers as it’s not easy to get it out but most of these are the same…When I get to actual buying replacement parts, obviously I’ll go there but just trying to work out whether to try tackling…

Any help appreciated.

Re: Rangemaster platewarmer not getting hot

This is a common fault. Rangemaster have now changed the design of the plate warmer. The original had 2 blobs of solder holding the wires to the plate, these become detached from the plate so it wont heat. If you look at the hotplate from the top by where it says HOT there are 3 round dots they should be orange but if 1 or more look black then the connections have come off.

I know its probably too late but i hope its of some help.
