I have a Creda E420EK Europa Solarplus electric oven and the main oven is now not heating up.
With the oven door closed, when I turn the dial to switch the oven on, I can hear the fan kick in, but the red light next to it now does not come on and no heat is generated. If I then open the oven door, the red light comes on and the fan slows down and stops after a few seconds but no heat is generated. Can anyone shed any light on what this problem is likely to be and how it can be fixed. I like to think that I am pretty handy and would prefer to obtain a replacement part if necessary and fit it myself but I wouldn't want to end up doing more damage to the oven if its too complicated.
On a seperate issue, I have replaced the bulb in the main oven Illuminator lamp several times now but it lasts for a few weeks and then blows again. Will it do any harm to run the oven with a blown bulb in it or should I keep renewing them each time it blows?
Any advice would be welcome.
