- How to replace the element in an electric oven. Changing an electric oven element is a simple DIY job. If your oven turns on but doesn't heat up then the problem is probably a broken element. This video shows how to remove the old element and replace it with a new element.

Thanks for this video, saved me alot of money. Thought I'd do the bulb too seen as that was broke.
@@cheezetoasty3573 I'm glad you found it useful 🙂
Thank you so much for this video. I now know what to do and save myself a lot of money. Goodness knows how much a workman would charge for this !
Thanks for the great feedback. It's not a difficult job but don't forget to switch the power off first 😁
Thankyou for that tutorial, really helpful. 👍
@ianchapman3158 Thanks for the great feedback Ian 🙂
Those wings look amazing!
Just replaced a hoover fan element, pretty much identical to this video. Only slight nightmare was that the mounting holes in the new element plate were too small to allow the self tapping screws to pass, so had to drill them out a bit… but the spade connectors were such a sod to get on I decided to drill it whilst inside the oven box 😬😂
That must have been a challenge 😂
Absolute legend!!!
Cheers 🙂
Thanks
Thanks Maggymoo 😃
Brilliant video, only difference on my oven is that the element plate was screwed in from the other side so I had to take the back off to unscrew it and replace with the new element. Somehow I always have the slightly more annoying models lol
Thanks Michael. It's always more satisfying when you complete an awkward job. Well done 😃
Thank youuuuuu❤❤❤❤
Thanks Sabrina 😁
Hi ted. I have a lacuno double oven (built in) , the element around the fan does not heat up, fan, light and other elements work fine. If i remove the cable from the element and connect another lead direct to mains from the element , it works fine , any ideas. ??? Your videos are helpful
Hi Raymond. Have you tried cleaning the clips and spade connectors where the element is connected to the supply? If these are dirty or corroded it will reduce/stop the current through the element.
@@bigtedshome . Thank you ted. Yes ! If i test the contacts when it is connected in the oven power is indicated on the pos and neg ( grey and double white )but no heat.
@@bigtedshome ted. In my first comments i should have added , i removed the element from the oven and introduced a lead from the mains to the element ...worked fine !
@Raymond Hamilton-cooper Logically, if you have power to the element and if the element works ok on a separate circuit, then I would expect it to be one of the connections that is the problem.
My oven doesn’t heat up on the fan setting but works using others. (The electric tripped one day and it stopped heating.
What are the chances it’s just the fan element I need to replace?
I think I need to do this with my oven, would the fan not spen if the element has gone? the bottom oven of my unit nothing is happening, the top oven works normally - or could that be a different issue?
Sounds like something different if nothing is working in the bottom oven. I would check if the two ovens have separate fuses first
@@bigtedshome remarkably I sorted it by setting the cooker's clock, the circuit had tripped, once the clock was set it worked as normal
@@ourtwotube Fantastic. Well done 👍
My cooker tripped on the main fuse box and then wouldn’t warm up when I turned it back on. Could it be anything else or definitely heating element
If it tripped the circuit board, it sounds like the element has gone. If you have a multimeter, you could do a continuity test on it to confirm this. One thing to try before though is to make sure the oven has come back on in manual mode. When the power is turned off or trips out, my (very old) Belling oven goes into timer mode needs to be reset into manual before it can be used.
I've changed the element and the thermostat on an indesit electric oven,still not warming up 🤦🏼♂️ I'm stumped
They are the 2 most likely faults. Have you tried contacting the manufacturer for advice?
@@bigtedshome no,I bought it five years ago so I'm guessing it's had it use. Without spending a ton more cash finding the fault I'm just gonna cough up for a new one 🤦🏼♂️ after so much money it gets to a point of not being worth it unfortunately
@@JJJH93 I hope you have more luck with your new oven 🤞
Oven element stopped heating and so did the top element but the rings work? Any idea
If you have a multimeter you could try continuity testing both elements.
