Oven will not heat to selected tempture

I take it this will be an electric oven. If so the likely hood is that the oven element has blown and will need replacing. Normally when elements short they will trip the houses RCD (once only normally)

What is your model number??

First reset your breaker, then check your wiring in the back of the oven. You may have just a wire loose.

This tutorial will show you how to check your Zanussi element and how to replace your Zanussi cooker element.
Here are the 3 main faults to look for in your oven or cooker that is not heating

1. Your oven will not work until the clock/timer has been re-set after replacing an oven element or tripping the electrical supply. Consult your Zanussi manual.
2. If you're Oven is not getting hot or heating up it could be a faulty element, if the fan in the oven is running and the thermostat light is on, this will lead us to believe that the element has gone faulty. With grills the thermostat light should come on there should be heat, if not then this could be the grill element or the thermostat.
3. When you turn the oven on, the household electrical supply trips on the Rcd (this is the earth trip in the fuse board sometimes called the breaker tripping) your fan oven element has gone to earth and needs replacing.

Hi,
If your electric oven is not heating then you probably have a bad heating element in your oven. This is not that hard to fix yourself...

More than likely a faulty oven elementr.
This is located at the reae of the inner oven compartment behind a removeable cover.

check the element plus check for loose or burnt connections

If fan is workintg, but no heat, then replace oven element.
If no heat or fan, then make sure timer is set on manual and not on auto
Please rate my solution.
Thanks.

most ovens have what is called tempture sensor,its job is to read the tempture within your oven if this sensor is faulty then it sends the wrong signal to your display,you talk about a thermometer showing a different temp please do not put this thermometer in your oven some of these contain mercury and could explode in your oven.I would advise you to call a electrication and get him to test your tempture sensor.sorry i cant help you any better.adrian

The solution I am proposing here only applys to electric ovens and not micro wave ovens.
The usual reason for fluctuating oven temperatures is a faulty or out of calibration thermostat.
Some thermostats can be recalibrated, but in my experience, it is better to replace it.
Another reason for fluctuating temperatures is a badly fitting oven door, or a worn or faulty door seal, the door should be a good firm fit agaist the seal.
Plz rate my solution.
Thanks.
