Advice to remove and replace top grill element on a CDA Cooker help please

remove the back is the only way

check thermostat for open,,,otherwise change element

The grill element should not 'blow' by just touching it - it should be earthed. The elements do gradually disintegrate over time & the inside wire element either fractures or touches the element casing causing the mains to trip. Sometimes this makes it trip just once & then stops working. Replace the element - not usually any fuse in circuit with this. Often held in by 2 screws adjacent to the element at back of oven and conections via Fast-ons- Rick

i assume this is an electric cooker if so the element needs to be replaced.

Ok , classic example of a fan oven element blowing, take the cover off inside the cooker held on by 4 screws so you can see the round element, you should be able to see where its blown a big hole.
replace element
( make the cooker is turned off of course)

there is a safety stat/fuse on top of the oven exterior i think you will find that it also has blown. Make sure you have isolated the appliance at the fuse board first though, Good Luck

A bit further investigation revealed the following:

Remove the two black clips on either side of the rear of the grill element and the element will come loose. Remove the connection lugs (two on the left and one on the right) and install the new element. Caution is needed because the element connection lugs do not have a lot of excess wire on them and may require the removal of the back of the cooker to effect a good replacement.

Is it just a 2 wire connection element?

removed broken element and replaced it. You have to access the fixing screws from the back of the cooker to remove it

Hi,

How easy is it to fit a new grill element. The element on the left hand side of the grill is not working so I need to replace this. I'm just wondering if this is easy to do myself or do I need an
electrician?
