Re: Smeg Fan Oven Mystery!
Guys – thanks for all your help – appreciated!
I’m going to have another Sunday afternoon dis-assembling and see if I can test the first (its easiest to get at!) then I’ll have a go at the selector.Failing that I’ll give in gracefully and resort once again to the Smeg repair service!Re: Smeg Fan Oven Mystery!
Hi Brian – yes there is – but not sure if there is anyway I can ‘test’ it – all the othe relemts work normally (grill/conventional top and bottom oven/hob) It doesnt look charred/burnt or ‘smell’ like its failed, but by a process of elimination I guess it could well be!

Hi,
Thanks for the post. I did check both elements to ground as well, and they were both fine (unfortunately ! would have made life easier if it wasn’t)
Am going to submit to the Smeg engineer as I think this has beaten me!Re: Smeg Fan Oven Mystery!
Hi Martin, thanks for the reply!
The oven is large (double the width of a ‘normal’ oven) and has two seperate elemts and two seperate fans. I thought the elements had gone, but they are seperate, and have had them both out and tested with a multimeter. Both give a god resistance reading (and spot on volts x volts / power in this case 2.2KW each) 24 ohms I’m fairly sure its not the elements. The Thermal cut outs (one for each element) also show as a closed circuit on a tester (albeit very low reading only 0.9 ohms) 😉
