Archie · Answer

What is the kind of issue you are experiencing. If the oven still comes on but wont heat up it could be the heating element, however I would suggest if the oven comes on but wont heat up call up the help line of the brand of oven and ask to speak with their technical team and they would advise you on if it is a power issue or something wrong with the oven and need one of their engineers out

Captain · Answer

Most common problem could be the heating element but the problem with replacing them is that most spare part online store will just sell a compatible part which will work  but wil no correspond with the oven rating which was what I learnt when I fixed my oven.

Sajad · Answer

I’d recommend having a qualified appliance/electrical technician take a look. In many cases the issue is something simple like a heating element, thermostat, selector switch, or wiring fault, especially if the oven has never given trouble before.

What to expect cost wise:
	•	Call out / diagnostic fee: £50–£100
	•	Common repairs (elements, thermostats, switches): £120–£250 all in.

Dino · Answer

It could be the element that is faulty. That will require striping the oven, replacing the element and re-assembly (anywhere between 1.5 and 3 hours work) add the cost of the element which is likely to bet around £50 (maybe more). In total you would be looking at at least £200 possibly more ...
