Re: Smeg Uk1065-x Built in Oven problem

Just an update on this.

It looks like the neon is working in reverse. It is off when the oven is warming but comes on when it reaches temperature….

very odd

Re: Smeg Uk1065-x Built in Oven problem

Hi,

I thought hotwiring (bypassing the stat) sort of proved it wasn’t that if the oven still exhibits the same odd behaviour ?

I’m buying a new thermostat tomorrow so will see if that’s all it is but I have a suspicion it is something else entirely….

Thanks everyone for your replies.

Re: Smeg Uk1065-x Built in Oven problem

Just been trying to find out what this can be and wasn’t sure it had anything to do with the thermostat so I took that out of the equation (joined the in/out wires). The oven still functions as before i.e. the neon doesn’t light but it does warm…

Am I right in thinking I can rule out a problem with the Stat ?

Hi,

Yes indeed.

It is strange. If I select the Fan oven (or any other ‘cooking’ setting) and set a temperature (say 200) no neon but after a few seconds the fan comes on (still no neon though). If I turn the temperature down the neon comes on at around 50.

The oven does warm but to what temperature I’m not sure so can’t be used to cook anything.

The rotisserie function works (as in it turns) but still no neon …

Thanks for the reply…
