    Got it…..had to push it firmly away from me, but I see what you mean about abruptly. Thanks for help.

    Fitted a new timer this weekend and all is now fine. Many thanks for the advice.

    Thanks for the advice……interesting that it doesn’t come up with an error. I guess it doesn’t monitor drum rotation.

    Thanks for your time. No it doesn’t and there is no noise to indicate it is trying to run.

    I tried putting it onto a spin program. It makes a noise (motor or pump?) but the drum is not turning then either.

    You need to track the wiring back to the relevant contacts on the timer and measure from there.

    Power off first, of course.

    Thanks for the advice….I’ll get the meter out and have a look.

    Re: Neff U1461 double oven – controls inoperative

    Spent some more time looking at this. The fact that the one indicator glowed faintly then went off when you put the oven temperature above a point that would cause the element to come on made me double check the mains supply.
    Turned out I have a faulty neutral in the feed to the oven. So nothing wrong with the oven itself.
