My oven won't get hot!

[dotty.]

Grrrr, the fan still works but there is no heat, anyone any idea what it must be? I'm working tomorrow and so no chance of getting it fixed and it's a long weekend! Help!

The heating element has probably broken....Get out the salad spinner:-)

Buy the JML tabletop Halogen oven . M uch more efficient and quicker if you have not got a big family to feed. I have had one for 2 years from Argos. Only use my main oven when the family come for dinner.

looks like the hob and microwave are going to be used dotty :(

[anneasquith]

i know it sounds obvious , but have you turned the temperature button on ?

High chance the element has gone, lesser chance the thermostat has gone.

Neither are expensive bits (elements are generally £20-30) and are changeable by anyone with a little DIY knowledge

TJ Hughes stores are selling those Halogen ovens for about £30 now, we had one and liked it but the halogen bulb blew and Asda gave us our money back and we never got round to buying another.

I would not be without mine. I do everything in it. No mess clean efficient and does not dry food up.
