Thermostat light cover – Ariston DOV317 Double Oven

[oneiota]

Does anyone know how to replace the thermostat light cover on an Ariston DOV317 or DOV318 (or similar) built in electric double oven?

After a few years, they seem to fall out, leaving a small (unplugged) hole in the front panel. In order to know if the oven has reached temperature, one has to turn the thermostat and listen for the ‘click’, noting the current temperature. It would be nice to see that it has reached the temperature by simply observing the orange light cover again!

There’s a lens cover listed, p/no C00156849, but can’t find a piccy, so not sure how it’s fitted.

Thanks for the part number Penguin 45!

Here is what it looks like:

Does anyone know how to replace it? Once they fall out, it’s not apparent how they ever managed to be ‘in’ – perhaps this will ring a bell for someone.

Okay, I’ve looked again at the existing cover which had fallen out. It’s actually not broken as I had believed previously believed, but must have come unplugged from a light on a wire (or similar) inside the panel.

I don’t need a new one – I just need to plug the old one back in.

New question: How hard is it to open the upper front panel on this oven?
