Both Ovens Stopped Working

AlwaysSomething

Hi, I have a Creda Contour Electric cooker. It's old, but it's been reliable up to now. Today, both ovens have stopped working. To be exact:
Working: hob-all rings, grill
Not Working: Top oven (same compartment as grill), bottom oven, fan, clock
Anybody know where to look first?
Thanks

Does it all run off a single supply? There could be a separate supply for the hob/grill and one for the ovens. If a single supply it's possible there's an internal fuse / breaker in the cooker somewhere.

OP, if you need to get someone in to fix it, worth looking at Domestic & General plicy. They will repair for free if you sign up for 1 year's cooker cover - ours was about £12 a month so about £150 (might depend on make/age). We did that a couple of years ago when our convection oven packed in, and it was cheaper than getting someone to fix it for a one off, and it did need another repair within a year when the fan oven broke.

t It usually the heating element has gone in the bottom oven as the fan stops and clock has to be reset when element has been replaced. This i replaced myself. I have not had to replace top oven element yet so don't know if it is as easy as the bottom one.

Has the clock accidentally being touched, some won't work unless there is a time set.

That is very interesting. My MIL's oven has stopped working and the clock is flashing - maybe I'll try resetting the clock and see if it works.
