Help needed for gas oven!
I know its a long shot but my gas oven is broken well i say broken when i turn it on the flame comes on but only comes on low even when i turn it up high it dont move!
Is it broken or is it fixable? will it be expensive? any help would be great otherwise i will be saving up for a new gas cooker! :( By the way its a Cannon Oakley oven the grill and hobbs work fine its just the oven. Thank you all soo much.xx |
Re: Help needed for gas oven!
some only come on low for a short time then come on full after a few minutes
Have you waited to see if it 'picks' up? |

If the thermocouple had packed it in only the standing pilot would stay lit. It is more likely to be the temperature control which can be replaced quite easily. Get a couple of estimates first though.

Re: Help needed for gas oven!
It is actually called an ffd (flame failure device) and is nothing to do with the regulo (regulator), have sent a pm.
There is a universal one which is ok for some cookers, but if the cannon oakley has a clock on it, the universal one wont do, it also means that the top, side and back panels have to be taken off. |

Re: Help needed for gas oven!
I made the same mistake.
Am I the only one? |
Re: Help needed for gas oven!
As explained earlier, it is NOT the thermostat that causes this problem.

Re: Help needed for gas oven!
Lol just seen this post and guess what! ive still not had the cooker fixed :-( cant afford it new baby on the way, xmas comming and the same week my tumble dryer broke! it cost me £65 for me to get the dryer fixed and i think i was ripped off it cost e £65 for a copasitor(not sure on spelling) and i had to go back to them 3 times because it stopped working 3 times after they fixed it! So far ive got by on using just the hobs, grill , microwave and steamer! steamed chicked, veg and new potatoes for xmas dinner i think or cheese on toast! lol thank you all anyway.x

Re: Help needed for gas oven!
I think my cooker has a similar problem as oven does not heat up fully. Everything inoven takes a lot longer to cook. Thought about getting a new cooker, then I saw the price, as most of basic cookers are too small, not that our current one is that big, just standard 55cm wide with eye-level grill, and battery igniter.
I suspect it just needs a proper service. |
