Hotpoint double oven - main oven not working

We’ve got a Hotpoint double oven DH53K and it’s just (we think) tripped the consumer unit in the hall. Oven had just been turned on at the time. Reset the breaker, but now the main over doesn’t work. The top part (small oven and grill) still works, it’s just the main part that doesn’t. The light still works in there though

Any idea what to replace first? Am guessing either the element or the switch? Is there a way of testing what has blown?

Thanks all in advance

    Is it under warranty?
