    There are two fans on this oven, one on the top, one at the back… grill & oven I’m guessing. So there’s an element in the fan assembly?

    I’m guessing I can check the continuity of this other element, any idea what readings I can expect?

    49.3 ohms and 25.6 ohms so looks like the element is fine!

    What’s the next step, replace the selector?

    Deffo no round element… here’s a link to what I have bought/replaced.

    Will check the resistance. If all is as it should be then what’s the next step?

    I’ve replaced the big element in the top of the oven with a new replacement. It is a dual grill/oven element 1000w/1900w and the fault is the same. I’ve not checked continuity but understand the resistance should be around 200 ohms… more importantly not an o/c, is this correct?

    There are no other elements in the oven, unless there are some small ones in the fans!

    Please note: there is absolutely no need for you to be trying to live test on an appliance, it is dangerous & unnescessary. Getting :zap: can seriously shorten your life.

    Thanks for the advice. What do you think I should change first?

    If the stat works on the grill, as its the same unit for the oven shouldn’t it work for the oven? also, when I have heated the oven using the grill, then change to oven the themostat works, ie it clicks/lights comes on, goes off when you turn the temp knob.

    Does the thermal cutout control the grill as well as the oven? If so, although my fault finding is a little rusty, then this and the stat thing above would suggest changing the selector switch first… after I have turned the mains off :rolls: would you agree
