Cannon Gas Oven will not get hotter

[Suedehead]

Our Cannon Gas oven developed a problem yesterday. When we turn the switch up, there is no change in the height of the flames. The oven will ignite ok, but remains on what appears to be a low gas mark whatever we turn the switch up to. I have removed the jet and made sure it was not blocked at all, but this made no difference. I turned on (and up) the gas with the jet off, and I could hear no difference in the sound of the gas coming through. Does anybody have any ideas of what I could try next please. Any help much appreciated. Thanks

ours does that, but after a few minutes the flames do get taller / hotter

if yours doesnt after a few minutes call a corgi qualified repair man for your appliance, it is ileagal for you to work on gas

or call hotpoint, when i worked there they owned cannon, and had corgi repair engineers

As Breezer says, you must get a corgi registered engineer to repair this.



Unplug your appliance before working on it.

Thanks for the advice. I have arranged for an engineer to call round this week. Thanks again
