Have a Smeg A42-5 dual fuel cooker – a few days ago, half way through cooking something, the (electric) oven stopped working. Fan still works, and I while it was cooling down I could still hear the thermostat clicking on/off as I moved the switch from low to high temp, but the indicator light wasn’t on and obv no heat from the element. Everything else on the cooker works, just no heat in the main oven, and it didn’t trip the consumer unit.
Have taken the element out and it is registering ~18ohms resistance ,which is a touch low (should be ~22ohm), but is not open-circuit. My next port-of-call is the main oven selector switch, but this is a bit more involved to get to than the element – any further thoughts before I rip the thing apart?
