Thanks Martin. Will check over the weekend and come back and let you know how I get on.

Thanks for reminder re power as well 😀 Safety first!

Re: Zanussi ZCE7701x fan oven not working

No joy. When knob is turned to defrost position, oven indicator light doesn’t come on, also manually spinning the fan doesn’t kick start it into action.

I made the assumption (simplistically) that the element and fan would be wired in parallel, given that when the element blew, the fan still operated? I presume no there’s more sophisticated control circuitry behind it?

Appreciate any other thoughts you may have.

(Or is it worth ordering a replacement fan and seeing if it fixes the issue?)

Many thanks

Martin,

Thanks for a very prompt response! Would a simple continuity test across the fan (when the oven is switched on) verify this?
