ParticipantI was trying to turn over a new leaf and be polite , to be fair I’ve never seen anything under the Bush brand that wasn’t total crud. All their Electronics stuff was total crap & everything had razor sharp edges just waiting to slice your fingers.

ParticipantNot had the pleasure of working on one of those yet, sounds a wonderful bit of kit.

ParticipantHi Dave: Reading his own thread about his machines problems, I got the impression that he wanted to remove the control panel to get at a duff button. It was a bit confused though, so I could be totally wrong.

ParticipantAye, they certainly were

ParticipantThink he’s talking about the control panel buddy.

ParticipantTotally agree, take it your old school as well then Dave ?. That’s the way I was taught (many moons ago), a couple of quick live tests can save an awful lot of guesswork.

Maybe a daft question, but are you sure that the timer is set to manual ?.

ParticipantFirst thing to do would be to turn the power off & remove the top again, then carefully check that you haven’t dislodged or broken any wires. A good bright torch often helps.

ParticipantHi Becky: My condolences on the passing of your dad, let’s try and get you through this & fix your cooker. As it’s such an old Electrical system, then yes It would be better to turn off the main switch on the fusebox as well. It will give you an added level of safety. You could try uploading your pictures to photo bucket & post a link to that, that apparently works quite well.

Also please be aware that before replacing the Element, unless it has physically blown or broken then there won’t be any way to tell it’s faulty without using a Multimeter to test it. Just throwing parts at it on the off chance is an expensive way to go about things.
