Trouble with fan assisted oven?

Question

Got a Servis double oven with the larger bottom one being a fan assisted one the top one is a conventional.. Last night we turned on the fan assisted oven , sparks were shooting at the glass, we since thenhave cleaned the metal plate that covers the fan thinking it was spills that had caused the sparks and now the fan works but there's no heat, the oven is less then four years old.is this a costly big job? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Call a local engineer out of your yellow pages or your local paper and it should cost no more than £70-£90 to repair. Call the manufacture and that will cost well over a £100 just for the engineer to call. So local guy and 1/2 the price. By the way, its the coil element that's blown.

Answer 2

Sounds like the fan element has blown its around £30 to replace but if you get an engineer to fit its it will cost approx another £30 plus any call out.

its fairly easy to fit just unscrew the back of the oven with the fan in situ and its a round coil surrounding the fan held by 4 or so screws with 2 electrical connections. about an hours work!

Answer 3

Yep I would agree 100% with the answer above,but would add put three clothes pegs on the cables going to the element ( remove them after you connect the new element ) to stop them from falling through the back of the oven
