    If the lights on your grill work, and you plug a kettle in(assuming you mean into the socket that the cooker is wired into) and that works, then it IS certainly a knackered oven.
  • Yes i mean't that i plugged my kettle into the socket that the cooker is wired into. I was hoping it wasn't a knackered oven, but like you said if the grill part works, then electricity is being supplied to it.

    What do i do? Can i claim on insurance, do they cover for items being damaged due to storms? or is my electricity company liable? Or do i have no chance and have to have no oven until i can save up for one.....

    i think it is more likely that a fusse within the cooker has blown.

    can you post the model number?
    Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today!:mad:
    Cos if you do it today and like it...You can do it again tomorrow.. :p

    Cookers do not have internal fuses unless they are industrial.
    Also if the fuse had blown, then the cooker would not work at all , and that includes the grill.
  • It doesn't have a model number visible on the actual cooker, i know nothing about it, was just left all booklets by previous owner.

    Its a new world creations-deluxe built in oven and grill (the hobs are seperate).

    When opening the booklet it says:

    G.C number - 11.641.42
    CKG number - CKG 21526

    Like mentioned above when i rang new world they asked for the model number, as soon i told them the above numbers they couldn't help because it was a before 1998 model and i had to ring that pathetic company.

    Keep trying the button pressing, my friend had the same problem as you and called out a technician to take a look at it. The guy walked in pressed and held 3 buttons (out of 5) for about 5 seconds and the thing burst into life.
