Good vid showing the more difficult element to change in an oven. I had the same and you very clearly showed how to deal with the more challenging element change….well done.
I’ve been tasked with replacing an element in a milano range and spent hrs looking for a video showing a rear plate removal demonstration of how to do it. Changed a few front screw elements but not rear access. Much appreciated matey 👍🏼
Exactly the video I was looking for, mine needs screwed from the back too in order to replace the heating element , I reckon I might need to unwire it first , My old cooker completely broke so I got a one off the scrap man for 10 quid and it all works except for the fan assisted heating element, I've ordered a new one for 12 quid and hopefully if I spend 10-20 minutes replacing it I will have got a decent working oven for only £22 and 2 hours of my time cleaning and repairing And thanks too this video I can move forward with confidence and instruction 👍
Really appreciate this - mine’s one of the “hard ones” and I thought I may be missing something as all the others screw in from the front, Glad I’m not alone!
Thank you. The thing that surprises me is , if both contacts on the element have power detected why is the unit dead ? Surely if there is power going in one side contact and power coming out of the other contact that should mean it is passing through the element and creating a circuit, or am i missing somthing ?
It's only the circuit that's broken. I.e. the element. Same as a light bulb. The element will be broken but live and neutral will still be there. It's a parallel circuit so you'll always have a live and neutral. If I had placed the tester on the element, it wouldn't have registered.
Thanks for this video. I think I have the same oven. However, mine is only 2 years old and the filament still looks brand new. The fan works but it’s not heating up. The grill filament does work however. Do u think I need to change the oven filament? Thanks!
The only way to really test it is taking it out and using a MultiMeter. However, it is likely the element has gone. I've replaced mine twice in the 6 years I've had it.
All done, the gaffer tape was actually the most helpful tip ! Simply holding parts and screwing in screws was arm aching Any how, I changed my element and now my oven is working tip top my guvnor
