Re: Electric Whirlpool Oven No Power
Have not been able to figure out what the issue is. I reconnected all the wires, tested for any loose or broken ones, and eventually even fitted a 13A plug and tried it in a different socket.
Still no sign of life.
I guess its a goner, or given I can get a new one for £165 it’s at least not worth repairing…

Ok, so I guess it’s not that then. I did have a look at the mains connections, but could not see anything untoward.
I will try having another look at the connections, loosening off and retightening.
Re: Electric Whirlpool Oven No Power
Possibly, though I have never had an issue before with the power supply. but I would expect in that case it would not have have come on at all after fitting the element and putting the oven back. It worked for a good 20 mins initially, then just died.
There is a thermal limiter on the rear of the oven, and I read that this could have gone when the element blew. I don’t have a multimeter to test the connection, but I’m not sure whether a faulty limiter would cause the whole oven to not come on (including digital display)?
If that is a potential cause, then I can get a new one for £30 so would give it a go before turning to a professional.
