Typically, the hob comes apart like this:
Then you get to the control panel that’s typically like this:
But they can vary a fair bit depending on what machine it is.

Without that info it’s really, really hard to tell you much of anything.
Thing, Ford Transit and you know no more than that but want a part. Check around the door openings as well.

It’s either the timer or the bracket that holds it but, to find out much more I’d need the ART and serial number.
The hob lifts up to allow access, all the burners need to be taken off and the screws released.

I’m not sure how that one detects it’s “blocked” one of the other guys may know but usually it’s indicative of blockage or fan issues.

You won’t get the stats, we’ve tried and tried to source those as have many others. All you can get is the heater complete as shown here:

It will yes.
But… 😉
With no way to enforce it in UK law brands can just do what they like, as they do now within the UK and, given they’re all UK or UK subsidiaries that doesn’t bode well.
I’d expect many to comply, especially the actual makers and their brands but all the rest, hell knows.
I’m a political junkie, don’t get me started on that. 😉

And here is the very real danger, the UK decides that we’re just not going to bother…
The link to the article is:
Sorry for the political nature of this, not something I normally do on here but it is utterly infuriating that something I and the WTA among others such as the Restart Project, have been battling to get for over a decade to help the repair industry and consumers may well be scuppered by political machinations surrounding Brexit that think somehow it’s a good idea to just not bother turning up.
So, whilst we may well get this, if we don’t leave the EU, we’ve had bugger all input and the UK is completely unrepresented.
And if we do leave, this will hardly be a priority, I’ve just a feeling there might be bigger fish to fry.
Maybe I’m just not believing enough. :rolleyes:

Correct.
If this legislation has the desired effect then prices of new will rise, it’s inevitable as makers will have to fund the legacy support and the intent being to make products last longer = less waste.
K.
It is going to become a legal requirement so manufacturers will be compelled to comply and I’d not like to be the first that doesn’t, then gets crucified by the EU as an example.
In the end, it’s the right thing to do for many reasons.
It’s also far greater in scope than just appliances, appliances are just the start of it.
But, if the UK somehow ever sorts Brexit and we do leave and do not maintain regulatory alignment with the EU which, as things stand looks extremely unlikely on this score, then we may not get the benefit of this in the UK. 🙁
