New applaince can't set clock, cannot switch on eletric ovens, electric grill works, gas hobs fine

At the rear of the oven is a gas cut off valve. Try twiddling it

Hello Jeff,

it seems to me a problem with the timerfunction of the clock.
Clocks are the most source of problems, so when I refurbish a cooker and the timer does not work properly, I shortcut the timer as new clocks are very expensive.
In that case, the clock itself stays working.
For doing this, you need to lift the hob.

BE CAREFULLY, AND BE SURE THERE IS NO TENSION ON THE COOKER

I hope this will help you and I wish you a good weekend and a nice meal with your friends. Dik

The double oven will only work if a time is set on the clock. Any time will do, you just have to set a time. The grill/top oven is independent of the clock. If the clock is faulty espare can sorce them for you.

Both the top and bottom oven will only work if a time (any time) has been set on the clock. Setting the time operates a contact to switch the power through. The only exception is the grill. This will work even if the time has not been set. So if the oven controls/lights and heating work, to me it means that the clock/timer is half working and the only thing that isn't is the display.
I haven't had the clock/timer to bits but a fellow blogger has said that in some timers there is an electrolytic capacitor that controls the display. When this fails as they are renowned for doing, the dispaly mal functions. If there is one then Maplin have some - VHR41W/43W and DT64U depending on value etc. Let us know how you get on.
If you need a new clock/timer they are around £80 from espares.

The hob is normally totally independent of the oven. What is actually working or not working on the oven? i.e. does the grill still work, is the clock OK and can you set it, or is everything totally dead?

the ovens work through the clock auto contacts if the clock not working then the ovens wont. may need a new clock or you can bypass the timer relay contacts if your clever. one of the oven elements may have blown to earth this is the main reason for a clock failing

Some have a AAA battery under the button - replace this, others use mains to create the spark, ensure you have the ignition wired up

trust you have set the clock as this turns the gas supply on to the ovens

Either teh grill element or the oven heating element is fault or the thermostat or grill regulator, locate which element is warm, if the grill then it is most likely the regulator, if it is the oven it is the thermostat. Engineer
