Electric oven on the blink

This evening my wife turned on the oven. The indicator light came on, went off, came back on again and then went off altogether. So there is no electric power coming through the element. I tried the intergal toasting element and that doesn`t work either. Any suggestions please????

    Have you had a power cut or turned off at the mains for any reason? Someone said on a different thread last week that he had turned off the oven at the wall to save having the oven 'on standby' with the clock always on. He couldn't use his oven afterwards until the main clock was reset.

    had the same problem with our 5 or 6 year old daewoo oven, the selector switch was broken, first grill intermittent, then oven, finally last week i looked at ordering a new one, £61 ! out came the screwdrivers, took out the part, cleaned and refit, all fixed for free (well, a squirt of clutch/brake cleaner)
