Opened oven door to cook some food and the oven was completely covered in a pale grey powdery ****. Switched oven off and let it cool, cleaned oven, switched back on lights working plus the fan, but not heating up. Can anybody help?

If the fan is working in the main oven and there is no heat, then it will be a faulty element.
Remove the cover at rear of oven
and you will see the round element. remove it and replace with new one.
Plz rate my solution .
Thanks.

If the oven is electrically heated, then more than likely, the oven element has failed.
This is located behind a removeable cover at the rear of the oven.
SOURCE: baumatic oven not heating up. Grill and fan fine.
if it is the b180, the answer (having just fixed this) is really simple.
The coily bit is the oven element - it will have gone. A new one from eBay cost me about 6 quid.
[WHEN IT ARRIVES !]
Turn the power off.
Inside the oven use a philips screwdriver to remove the 4 screws (KEEP
THEM !)
You will see a coily thing and a fan.
You unscrew 3 more screws (2 on the left and 1 on the right).
(KEEP THESE TOO!)
now ... bit tricky, have the new one inside the oven and take each wire off one at a time and put it on the new element.
Screw it back on but DONT put the last panel back in.
Turn the oven on maximum for about 2 minutes and see it glow red.
Turn the oven off. Make a cup of tea and have a couple of biscuits while admiring how good you are and waiting for the element to cool down!!!
Put the final panel back in place. Whole thing (including a cup of tea) takes about half an hour.
