cannon cooker faulty ignition.

[jigman1]

I own a Cannon Cambridge double oven gas cooker and the ignition has stopped working. At first the fault was intermittent but now its not working at all .Has anyone had a similar problem and can advise me on this matter. Thanks.

If this is affecting both ovens (and the hob, if one is connected) its possibly the spark generator thats gone. You can replace this yourself if you are competent with diy repairs. You can buy the part online.

If you dont feel comfortable doing it yourself yourself then get someone in. It's not difficult to replace, on ours it meant taking off the back panel of the oven and replacing the part. A bit fiddly but not difficult.

as mentioned before if the ignition has completely failed on all burners and presuming the fuse in the plug is ok its likely to be the spark generator. you can order a new one from gas on spares in halesowen who have a website and mail order facility. to order the part though you will need to find the data badge which is usually just inside the oven door and make a note of the model number, serial number and the pnc number.
if its just one of the hotplate burners gone then it could be the spark electrode that needs replcaing and if its an oven with automatic ignition it could be a micro switch behind the oven knob.
these jobs arent difficult if you know what your doing but they can be fiddly and it can be a challenge working out how the cooker comes apart as every make and model is different.
which part of the world do you live in?

Thank you both for your excellent answers. I live in the Solihull area of the west mids.I will follow your advice and send my cooker details to the "gas on" website for a quote.
All of my gas rings , ovens and grill are'nt working so its probably the spark generator. Thanks again.
