I have a belling b160f cooker, which blows a fuse after an hour of operation, I suspect the cooling fan? This is assuming the cooling fan kicks in when it gets too hot? I have checked the elements for the grill & main oven (all buzzed out ok; insulation, continuity & earth leakage). I have checked the oven fan motor and the cooling fan for for insulation, continuity & earth leakage and they are ok for that but I get a less than anticipated resistance reading for the cooling fan motor resistance of 1.3 kilo-Ohms and by my calculation, it should be around 4.6 kilo-Ohms. Am I correct in my assumptions or barking up the wrong tree? Thank you for your help.

Put an AC Amp meter (preferably a logging type) on to the unit for when using it. See if it exceeds that of the circuit breaker or fuse. Most of these appliances pull about the maximum allowable load from the mains supply. If the Amps never exceeded the rating of the breaker or fuse, this means the problem is with the electrical panel.

I have seen a defective heating element in appliances cause the tripping of a circuit breaker in the electrical panel. With age the element becomes a little lower in resistance at times, and thus is drawing slightly too much current. Replacing the element fixed it.

    SOURCE: Zanussi ZDQ 595 fan oven not heating

    You need to replace the round fan oven element located at the rear of the oven compartment behind a removeable cover where the fan is located.

    Testimonial: "Thankyou - i did not know there was another element in there!! I cannot believe how expensive these ovens are considering the simplicity of their construction and low cost of the components inside.. Thanks again..!"

    SOURCE: my cooker won't heat up

    remove the rear panel covering the fan (4 screws) from inside oven. The element is round the fan. you may see where the element has burnt through or split or distorted the element.

    MAIN HOUSE FUSES TRIPPED, RESET, OVEN AND GRILL WILL NOT HEAT UP

    It would appear that the tripping of the switch has caused some kind of short within the cooker. I would look for the continuity of the heating element.

    Most likely the wires leading to the heating element have burnt and will need replacement. If you are comfortable with attempting a DIY, well and good. You will have to open the back panel to access the said wires. It should be easy enough to identify..it will be the wire leadingto the heating coil.

    If , however, you are not familiar with these kind of things, I would recommend getting a repair guy to do it for you.

    Cheers and good luck with the repair!

    I have a belling double oven. The bottom is fan assisted. It all works okay but when it is turned off it is making a drumming noise after the fan has stopped. This lasts for at least 5 minutes. Any...

    Sounds like the cooling fan bearings are worn, hence the noise after you turn the cooker off.This fan is in the top of the oven and helps to keep the inside cooker electrics cool and often keeps going for a while after you have turned the cooker off. Best to call an engineer to check this out for you!

    My AEG competence oven is making a loud buzzing noise coming from the top fan? The food tonight was either burnt or under cooked? The buzzing is also loud when switched off/cooling down? Any ideas please.

    I would suspect that the problem is caused by the external cooling fan located under the outside cooker cabinet housing, which continues to operate as the oven is cooling down if it is built in, you will have to remove it from the oven housing to access the fan

    Belling xou178 ss not heating up? fan blowing cold air, digital display working. is it the element and how do i fix it?

    Yes most likely it is the element if the fan is still working.

    First switch off the power to the cooker. You have to remove the back panel fom the back of the cooker which will give you access to the heating element, disconnect the wires and undo the retaining screws.

    Remove the old element and fit the new, reconnect and it should be fixed.

    My neff oven b1664 rear fan element stays on after switched off

    I suspect that the fan oven thermostat is faulty,probably a contact welded inside the stat.or possibly a faulty function selector switch.
    If the fan is not running, then it is still getting a supply from the thermostat. Fit new stat.
