We have replaced melted fan heating element of top oven and the bent down large square heating element of bottom oven. Top oven works fine, but when switcing bottom oven on, we hear a sound like the fan is touching something. We pulled out the mesh infront of the fan, but the noise continued. Incidentally, when we replaced the element and started the oven, we heared a bang, but there was no rubbing noise to speak of. I doubt if there is a mechanical problem, but it could be electrical. Can anyone help us please?
Most likly the fault is the fan blades touching the side of the circular hole,to test.1.switch of all power.2.when power is switched of try switching your oven to on position.if oven will not work then proceed3.if you can turn the fan blades by useing a thin piece of wood or simler.4 if when you turn the blades you hear a rubbing noise you might take a closer look if you have torch point it in if you see the blades touching or one of the blades touching it might be possable to to push the offending blade back very slightley useing the same piece of wood you yoused at 3.if this fails to solve your problem the fan moter might be ready to give up. I hope this can solve your problem.yours adrian.

Hi Adrian
Thank you for your reply. The fan is running free without touching anything, but the noise (sounds like drilling noise) comes on as soon as you switch the oven on and before the fan comes on. Does this suggest to you that the problem lies elsewhere?
Best Regards
