HI ,I have just managed to remove hinges from a smeg a1.1 range. to get hinge out you have tohook up a small holding catch on the bottom bar and thenforce open the hinge, the topbar thencatches on the small catch which then holds the complete hinge open .The whole assembly can then be pulled out. The holding catch is only about 1" long but is easily flicked up with a screw driver Paul 07776 438 408
The clock and timer unit fails to display.
Same problem here. Pressing hard on the fascia worked for a bit, but now fails to work.
The thing I've noticed is that the whole section above the grill gets extremely hot when the grill is used, i.e. the panel with all the dials and the clock. I don't remember this always being the case, so I'm wondering if some heat dispersal mechanism (a fan perhaps?) has failed over the years... effectively causing the clock's electronics to get cooked. You've had three clock modules in five years?!
I have a smeg A42-5 oven and the digital clock as
Hi There
I have found this for to read and hope this will help you. Let me know how it goes.
The clock stopped
The
non-electronic clocks on electric range/ovens often don't last long.
That's a problem, because the clock is essential to the self-cleaning
and timed-bake features. Clocks are rarely repairable--you usually just
have to replace them.
Electronic
clocks have been more reliable. But, they're often integrated with
several other features of the range/oven. So when the clock develops a
defect, it often renders the entire oven and broiler inoperative. The
electronic clock is usually integrated with a circuit board, and the
touchpad that holds the buttons you press is often a separate
component. If your electronic clock is defective, you may need to
replace the touchpad, circuit board, or both. Although these may be
expensive, they aren't usually very complicated to replace.
Thank you for writing to fix ya.

My ram double fitted oven blows the electric fuse every time i
It sounds like you have a hot wire going to ground (earth) and your oven is protecting you as it should. Finding the problem will take a little know how and I would advise you to find a serviceman or friend with some electrical experience to check it out. Someone could try and talk you through it, but that would be an unsafe option.
Oven dead after turning fuses off and on.
Yes you can. I am a licensed electrician and have seen it happen several times. However, if you replace the fuse and it blows again stop and check to see if you have a ground problem. You will need a volt/ohm meter to do this. Any hardware or Walmart will have a cheap one, which is all you will need. Most ovens in the home are 240 volt ac. You may have a three or four wire systems depending on how old the unit is. One wire is a ground, and is a protection wire that will trip the breaker or blow the fuse instead if shocking you if any power goes to the outer case.. It is usely green or yellow with a green stripe. In older units it also was used as a return for the 120vac devices on the unit (Lights, Controls, etc.) This wasn't very safe and new units have four wires, one dedicated to the return line.
All that said, you check it by first unplugging the oven and turning the breaker back on or replacing the fuse. If it doesn't trip or burn out, plug the unit back in. If nothing goes wrong you are good to go. If it does trip, call a service man of frind with an electrical background to check it out. Most oven problems are not that hard to fix, just expencive depending on the part.

You can suspend it by wires wrapped on the ducting at 3 equal point of the circumference. This is good for when there is no walls or support around. The manufacture of the ducting should also offer bands/ brackets to suspend or mount. Its really a easy job. Best of luck.
