We cleaned the fan oven and now it doesnt work

We cleaned the fan oven and now every time we put it on after about a minute it blows all the electrics in the house and stops working. Can it be fixed or is it cheaper to just buy a new one?? We cleaned it over a week ago so we have let it dry out. The grill still works though??

Hi.

I have come accross this problem many times. ----always when it has been cleaned. Somehow the cleaner coats the element and creates a hot spot. This will cause it to trip the electric as soon a s its switched on or after the element has been on for a while!!

You may be able to remove the back cover ( the one you see when you open the oven door) and gain access to the element. Try and clean it with a damp cloth. If this fails then the only solution is a new element. You havent mentioned make so i cant price one up for you.

My email address is [email protected] if you weant more information.

regards

My oven fan has recently started to make a very loud rattling noise for around 30 seconds once every few minutes while the oven is turned on in fan mode.

The fan needs be cleaned and lubricated. To do this: Turn off stove/oven. Remove fan cover plate. Remove fan. Clean and lubricate the shaft bearings with 3 way oil. Install fan and cover plate.

My oven is showing F6 EC TEMP on the screen how do I fix it? Please let me know.

F6: EC (Electrical Compartment) Temperature High

Fault is displayed when the EC thermocouple

exceeds 158?F (70?C). It is monitored once per
minute.

The electrical compartment is overheating. Remove the panel on the right side and clean out all the dust. Check the fan at the back and see if its blowing alot of air. Sometimes this fan can get so clogged up with dirt, it slows down the air flow.

When baking lots of hot air blowing from top vent

It is a good thing that the heat blows out. Electric oven didnt have anywhere to vent so the cpu boards got hot and burned up. So to correct this problem there is a little fan that blow out the heat so the cpu board doesnt over heat. thats all.. no worries mate
