Oven wont shut off
Fuse won't let it shut off? That doesn't make sense. A fuse is made to connect something not disconnect something. I don't know how much you paid that repair man but I would probably call another to verify the diagnosis.
Good luck.

My defy slimline cooktop shows ER42 but I changed the capacitors, what is wrong?
The ER42 error code typically indicates an issue related to insufficient power being delivered to the ceramic element.
Check Power Supply: Ensure that the cooktop is receiving adequate power. Verify that the power supply is stable and not fluctuating.
Inspect the PCB (Printed Circuit Board): Since the error points to a fault on the PCB, visually inspect the control board for any signs of damage, loose connections, or burnt components.
Capacitors: You mentioned that you've already changed the capacitors. While this is a good step, it's essential to ensure that the new capacitors are correctly installed with the same rating and polarity.
Reset the Cooktop: Turn off the power to the cooktop completely. Disconnect it from the mains for a few minutes, then reconnect it and power it back on. Sometimes, a reset can clear minor glitches.
No joy? Consider professional repair.

Domain ceramic cooktop cec70 will not turn off
If your ceramic cooktop model CEC70 is not turning off, there are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:
1. Check the controls: Ensure that you have properly followed the instructions to turn off the cooktop. Some models may require you to press and hold a specific button or combination of buttons to power off the cooktop. Refer to the user manual for your specific model for detailed instructions on turning it off.
2. Power cycling: Try power cycling the cooktop by turning off the power at the circuit breaker or unplugging it from the power source. Leave it unplugged or with the power off for a few minutes before plugging it back in or turning the power back on. This can sometimes help reset the controls and resolve any temporary issues.
3. Control lock: Check if the cooktop has a control lock feature that might be activated. Some models have a lock function to prevent accidental changes to the settings. Look for a button or key combination that activates or deactivates the control lock. Refer to the user manual for instructions specific to your model.
4. Contact customer support: If the issue persists, it is recommended to reach out to the manufacturer's customer support or consult a professional technician who specializes in appliance repairs. They will be able to provide further guidance or arrange for a service visit to diagnose and fix the problem.
Remember, when dealing with electrical appliances, it's always important to prioritize safety. If you encounter any unusual or potentially hazardous situations, such as smoke, sparks, or strong odors, immediately turn off the power supply and contact a professional technician for assistance.

My Hotpoint induction hob is flashing error F14. What do I do too rectify this please?
Error F14 on a Hotpoint induction hob typically indicates a problem with the touch control panel. Here are a few things you can try to fix this error:
- Disconnect the power supply to the hob for a few minutes, then reconnect it and see if the error persists.
- Try cleaning the touch control panel with a soft, dry cloth to remove any dirt or grime that may be causing the error.
- If the problem persists, you may need to reset the touch control panel. To do this, you will need to locate the reset button, which is usually located underneath the hob or inside the control panel. Press and hold the reset button for a few seconds, then release it and see if the error persists.
If these steps don't fix the problem, it's possible that the touch control panel is faulty and will need to be replaced. You may need to contact a professional for this repair.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

Can anyone tell me the specs I would need in a varistor to replace the one from my Iwatani induction cooktop?
o determine the specifications for the varistor to replace the one on your Iwatani induction cooktop, you will need to know the voltage rating and the maximum current the varistor can handle.
One way to determine these specifications is to check the datasheet for the original varistor, which may be available from Iwatani or the varistor manufacturer. If you cannot find the datasheet, you can try measuring the resistance of the varistor with a multimeter, which can give you an idea of the voltage rating. However, keep in mind that the resistance may change as the varistor ages or if it has already failed.
Additionally, you may need to know the peak current that the varistor can handle. This information may be available on the datasheet or on the original varistor if there are any markings left. If you cannot determine the peak current, a general rule of thumb is to choose a varistor with a maximum surge current rating that is higher than the maximum current that the circuit can deliver.
It's important to choose a varistor with the correct voltage rating and peak current handling capability, as using an incorrect varistor can potentially cause further damage to your induction cooktop or pose a safety hazard

Electric schott ceran glass cooktop model number ISE630WS01 right burner not working
Based on your question that the right front burner of your Schott Ceran glass cooktop is not working, here are some steps you can try to troubleshoot the issue:
- Check the power supply: Make sure that the cooktop is properly connected to a power source and that the circuit breaker or fuse is not tripped. If the circuit breaker is tripped, reset it and try turning on the burner again.
- Check the burner control switch: The burner control switch regulates the power to the burner. Check if the switch is loose, damaged, or defective. You can test the switch for continuity with a multimeter to determine if it is functioning properly.
- Check the heating element: If the burner control switch is not the problem, the issue may be with the heating element. Check the element for visible damage, such as cracks, burn marks, or discoloration. If you see any damage, the element may need to be replaced.
- Check the wiring: Check the wiring connections between the burner control switch and the heating element. If any of the connections are loose or damaged, this may be causing the issue.
- Test with a different burner: If you have multiple burners on your cooktop, try testing the right front burner with a different control switch or heating element to determine if the issue is with the burner or another component.
The above are basic means of troubleshooting, the following below will add more to the solution above;
Check the control board: The control board is responsible for sending power to the heating elements. Check the control board for any signs of damage or burning, and test it for continuity using a multimeter.
Check the thermal fuse: The thermal fuse is a safety device that cuts off power to the heating elements if they overheat. Check the thermal fuse with a multimeter to see if it has blown. If it has, you will need to replace it.
Check the switch relay: The switch relay is another component that can cause the burner to not work. Check the switch relay for any signs of damage, and test it with a multimeter to see if it is functioning properly.
Test the voltage supply: Use a multimeter to test the voltage supply to the burner. If there is no voltage, this could indicate a problem with the control board, thermal fuse, or switch relay.
Check for loose connections: Inspect all wiring connections between the control board, switch relay, and heating element. Loose or damaged connections can cause the burner to not work.
