The timer was replaced 6 months ago after heat damage. The latest timer shows slight damage but is serviceable. However, the lower Jumo temperature selector switch does not give its characteristic 'click' when rotated to the desired temperature. I note that the switch has a capillary tube fitted and the other end disappears into a thick insulation wall that is fitted adjacent to the oven wall. Is it possible to replace this switch and capillary tube without major work on the cooker, or leave the tube in-situ and replace the switch?

It sounds like you may be having an issue with your Dacor double oven. If the relay board is preventing the oven from working, there could be a problem with the board itself or with a component it controls.
To troubleshoot this issue, you may want to try the following steps:
Check the oven's electrical connection and circuit breaker. Make sure the oven is properly plugged in and that the circuit breaker has not tripped.
Check the relay board for any visible damage, such as burnt or melted components. If you find any damage, the board may need to be replaced.
Check the oven's thermostat. It is possible that the thermostat may be faulty and not allowing the oven to heat up.
Check the heating element. If the element is not heating up, it may need to be replaced.
If these steps do not help resolve the issue, you may need to call a repair technician to diagnose and fix the problem. It is generally not recommended to try to repair an oven yourself, as it can be dangerous and may void the manufacturer's warranty.
Sounds like you have a valve sticking or a safety switch causing it to shut down. Does this unit exhaust first then the burner ignites that might be your issue
This tutorial will show you how to check your Beko element and how to replace your Beko cooker element. Here are the 3 main faults to look for in your oven or cooker that is not heating
1.Your Beko oven will not work until the clock/timer has been re-set after replacing an oven element or tripping the electrical supply. Consult your Beko manual.
2.If your Oven is not getting hot or heating up it could be a faulty element, if the fan in the oven is running and the thermostat light is on, this will lead us to believe that the element has gone faulty. With grills the thermostat light should come on there should be heat, if not then this could be the grill element or the thermostat.
3.When you turn the oven on, the household electrical supply trips on the Rcd (this is the earth trip in the fuse board sometimes called the breaker tripping) your fan oven element has gone to earth and needs replacing. If this helped you why not get me a beer?

You can set the timer on a range slow cooker to automatically
switch to a warming setting when you estimate foods will finish
cooking. The programmable features allow you to leave food stewing at
home while you are out of the house, freeing up your day.
Set the timer
on a range slow cooker to let the kitchen appliance do all the
work, and come home to a fully cooked meal.
Fill the insert of the range slow cooker with food and cover it
with the lid. At least a quarter of the insert should be filled with
liquid to keep the environment moist during long cooking times.
Press the "On/Off" button on the left side of the electronic control
panel in the front of the appliance. This will turn on the slow cooker
to the low heat "Warm" setting.
Press the "Cook Time" button on the right side of the electronic
control panel to add hours to the timer which will show a total time in
hours with a red digital display. Continue to press the button until
the display indicates the desired cook time in one-hour increments up
to 10 hours. The cooker will automatically adjust the temperature
setting based on the amount of time you programmed on the timer.
Cooking times of six hours or less automatically start on "High" heat
and times of seven hours or more will start on "Low" heat. A small
indicator light will come on below the word to tell you the cooking
temperature.
Unfortunately many modern ranges do not incorporate fuses into the control panels, other than the 15amp outlets used for plugging in external devices, they are typically the resettable type fuse.
Many manufactures have gone away from the typically glass fuse style circuit interrupters of previous ranges of say 15-20yrs ago and older.
If the clock display is not illuminated nor functioning, but the surface element functions appear fine, it is likely a fault within the clock ( also referred to as a timer or erc ) itself. Check for possible burnt or loose wires going into the timer such as L1 or L2 etc.
**Please unplug the range or turn off the 40amp breaker at your homes service panel before attempting any service to the range**
The part for the timer/clock is # 3196967 and retails for between $167 to $233 at "searspartsdirect.com" and "repairclinic.com" respectively as I type this on June 6/2010.

yes the switch that controls the element is bad the oven is a natural thing there is no general promblem bad with the range the oven elements are called cal rod elements its a wire with insulation between it and the out side part if the insulation breaks down then the wire shorts out and its like an electric welder and your right its a scary site to see lol the eye is a bad switch just replace the switch and it will be fine the element you took out is still good plug it in where you took the other one out and see
