How do you change the grill element ? on a Neff U1421N2GB/05

The grill element has an internal short and needs replacing. Sometimes you can see it as a slight bulging of the element. This happens just before it blows a hole. It may also have been physically damaged when something was put in there after a few Sherries. :>D Sounds like your RCD is adequately sensitive.

Search you tube for wiring diagram.

the screw hole has corroded from steam and now the screw is to small there is a repair kit for this but a technician would have to repair it alternately you could screw in a slightly wider not longer screw but its only a temp fix.

it has to be the temperature control itself...thats the only other component, aside from the high-heat cut out switch which rarely goes bad.

More likely the heater element.. I hope this helps...

You need to replace the element. Very easy job remove the back plate from inside the oven (4 screws) and you will see a circular element held in place by one screw in the centre of the fixing plate. Remove the fixing screw then remove two wires and refit new element job done.

Hi, it feels like your oven element has gone.
switch it off from the mains, open the door and remove the screws fixing the back panel. You will find a round two turn element. Unscrew the element fixings and check the element for burnt marks, corrosion. If you have a multi meter, turn it to buzzer and use the meter leads to test the element connections. If it doesn't buzz, it's dead. Just needs replacing.

There are a couple of solutions to this prob,
You can get some plastic metal and build up the corroded area after cleaning it first, then you can drill a new fixing hole for screw.
The other thing you can do is to cut a small metal plate to fit over bad area, drill and fix it to oven liner, again drill a new fixing hole for element to be secured.
Plz rate my solution.
Thanks.

You should not need to remove fan to access the element fixing scew(s).
You may need what is called a torx screwdriver, if the screws are conventional screws, but some times a small screwdriver will undo them if they are not too tight.
let me know if you require any more assistance.
Plz rate my solution.
Thanks.

Ha - I found the solution myself. You need to remove the 3 screws securing the fan motor. Once you've done this, you can wiggle the fan a few mm, far enough to be able to remove the top element screw.
