Tecnik TKC1285 poor heating

[scortedvan]

Hi All,

First post here so thank you in advance for any help that can be offered! I have just moved into a new house and there is the above cooker fitted which certainly looks the part but……..

when the static oven option, or the conventional fan oven settings are selected on the main (left) oven the heat really doesn’t get very intense. The red led illuminates and once a temperature has been selected with the next dial the orange led underneath illuminates to indicate that the thermostat is sensing temp, but this should go out once the requested temp is reached and from then on cycle as the temp is maintained. If i input max temp, and leave the cooker for 30 mins, the stat light will still be on and although the inside of the oven is quite hot its not 230 degrees hot. In fact if i turn the temp dial down slowly to see at what point the stat light goes off its around 110 degrees. Surely this isnt normal?

This is much the same for the smaller oven (right) but with the same test i can barely achieve 80 degrees.

One other thing i notice is the control panel fan kicks in with in 5 minutes of the oven being switched on, and has done every time ive tried it, again this may be normal but seems unlikely. Does anyone have any suggestions or similar faults that they have come across? and does any one have a a wiring diagram or repair manual for this oven?

Wow thats a lot of typing haha

Thanks again,

Joe

Your will have to contact BSH Appliance Care for info on this obscure brand.

Yeah it seems a little obscure, some sort of ‘moden buy our kitchen and get this big shiny thing free’ by the seems of it. There’s also a tecnik fitted dishwasher which appears to be u/s aswell!

Done a little work this evening, and the seals are all poor on both doors which clearly won’t help anything. And just looking now at the main oven (left) when set to fan assist and max temp, both upper and lower elements heat up rapidly when checked with a pyrometer but the rear fan element much much slower and this may be just down to radiation from the other two. Which may explain things? Yet to remove and check resistances but…….

In optimism of a failed fan element would anyone know where to source one along with a fl set of door seals?

Thanks again

Joe
