Zanussi oven not working

lushplus4

Hi

Please can anyone help

My Zanussi oven went "pop" and now there is no heat whatsoever. The hob and grill work fine.

Could this be the thermostat or heating element?

Product no 948904208
mod ZKC 6020s

Are these easy to replace? I have just phoned zanussi and they have quoted me £112.00 call out :eek:

PS. The fan works absolutely fine aswell

Sounds like the heating element has gone - it is situated at the back of the oven - these can be replaced but you need someone practical to do it as some are fiddley and require more dismantling than others.

Thanks Paulsad,
I am going to order the part directly from Zanussi site it's £25.50 and get ex to fit it.

Fingers crossed

Go to one of the appliance part sites (just google zanussi oven element or similar)- some have videos with step bystep instructions on how to replace parts - just make sure oven is disconnected from any power before anything else.

I have just watched a youtube video, it looks fairly straigtforward.

We had the same problem, it was the element that went. We got the part for £15 and my other half fitted it, no problem. We got a quote around £100 For it to be fixed. There are some videos on YouTube which we found very useful!
