Then the cooker is faulty.

It is not a single ring or oven element.

sorry again for spelling and paragraph's and also some of the questions asked, i must have missed them when replying,
it
i have just seen another reply saying i may have shorted the neutral how would i have done this? please explain,

When you have been working in the switch area it is possible the insulation has chaffed on the neutral cable or the wire has been nipped when you have put it back together & shorted to earth, in which case it would not cause the mcb to trip until the cooker was switched on & completed the circuit.
