Houses in this former agricultural market town sit between Bodmin Moor to the west and Dartmoor to the east. Electric range cookers are heavy appliances that become a permanent fixture in a kitchen, meaning any maintenance has to happen exactly where the machine stands. When a range cooker stops working, the sheer number of components inside can make finding the fault tricky. A main or secondary oven that fails to heat up is usually down to a blown heating element or a faulty thermostat. Because these cookers have multiple heating zones, a failure in the grill or one of the electric hob plates might be caused by a degraded control switch rather than the element itself. Cooling fans and oven circulation fans can seize or burn out over time. If turning on a specific oven cavity trips the electrics, there is likely an earth leak in the element for that section. Our visit involves looking at the controls, fans and thermostats to identify why a main or secondary oven is not heating. We also investigate grill and hob faults, as well as range cookers that trip the electrics. Please note that our cooking appliance repairs are electric and induction only, so we do not work on gas cookers or gas hobs.

Call 01752 922765This happens when an electrical component develops an earth fault. In an electric range cooker, the most likely culprit is a heating element in the main or secondary oven. As the element degrades, the internal insulation breaks down, allowing current to leak to earth. Replacing the faulty element resolves the tripping issue.
If the fan is running and the indicator light is on but there is no heat, the fan oven element has likely failed. A visual inspection might reveal a blister or break in the metal casing of the element. Alternatively, a faulty thermostat could be preventing the cooker from calling for heat.
Yes, we look at grill and hob faults on electric range cookers. A grill that fails to heat is usually caused by a broken grill element or a burned-out control switch. We dismantle the top section of the cooker to test the connections and determine which part needs to be replaced.
