Hi there hope you can help our gas cooker oven has gas supply but when the oven its turned up fully the flame does not go up to a full supply
the rings on top work fine and turn up full
the grill works full
It sounds exactly the same as I am experiencing on my oven of the same model. My theory is that the full flame gas is controlled by a thermostat, and that this has broken hence why the oven only stays on preheat. This will be a matter of a replacement part. Most likely the thermostat is a bi-metal strip that, because it has heated and cooled so many times in it's life it has simply finally given up. Try searching online for the correct part and get a corgi registered fitter or another suitably qualified fitter to come and replace it.
I would recommend Sussex Cooker Repairs wholeheartedly. I 'phoned them on 01273 420134, had the part sent by mail and with their telephone help installed it in just over half an hour. Total cost £60.33.

Having it replaced by Rangemaster it's the FFD part going to cost £140 inclusive of labour , parts and VAT so a lot cheaper than a new cooker. I've had my rangemaster for over 10 years with no problems so don't want to part with it. Ring the firm they were so helpful.
Hi, i have the same problem, has anyone had this issued repaired? hiw much was the replacement part?
Just had the same issue here in the UK. Rangemaster 55 Leisure, over 15 years old. Rangemaster do not repair themselves, but farm out to two other companies. Both refused based on the age of the cooker. However Rangemaster spares have ordered me a new SSD (safety cut off device) which is the issue - not the thermostat. Their number is 01926 457400.
A registered Corgi gas fitter has said he can fit it for me.

i have the same problem with my rangemaster 55 leisure. burner will not burn on full rate regardless of gas setting. suspect thermostat failure! Any idea of the cheapest place to buy one?
Yep, same problem but I can't even find the thermostat to replace it! Any ideas?
how amazing - I have had exactly the same problem - I called in a plumber friend and he said its something to do with the ignition light not igniting the bigger flamw - some thing that needs to heat up etc
I haven't found how to fix it - I thought I'd try to ring them about spare parts etc as the oven was given to me...
any other thoughts on how to fix?
I have exatly the same problem, everything works apart form the oven!
