Re: AEG (in)Competence turns heat off – Part No query

hi, just an update. The new thermostat for the cooling fan works a treat – great. So UK Whitegoods saved me a costly call out fee 🙂 For any other beginners like me, it sits beneath a couple of outer casing panels which are easy to unscrew (with power off, of course!). Have a couple of new cable ties handy as the wiring for the thermostat is threaded through these ties as part of the wiring ‘loom’.

The replacement ‘universal’ bulb I’d ordered from the shop as the oven lamp had gone too, is not, in fact, universal as it’s too fat to go in the AEG bulbholder. I’ll get a replacement locally – anyone want a fat bulb?? 🙂

And the oven door went back on fine except I thought I couldn’t lay it down flat (it naturally rested at 45 degrees-ish and there was some resistance to it going further down. I thought the door bottom was being impeded by the oven base itself). So I rehung and rehung… before realising it just needed a push past that resistance! That’s what comes of being a novice… :rolls:

Thanks very much Penguin45, greatly appreciated. I’ll think of you next time we don’t have to wait an extra 45mins for the roast to cook!

Part, new bulb (and dishwash basket) now ordered from the shop.

thanks again – and for tip of removing all bits and pieces
