hi my oven has just suddenly stopped heating up. the light lights up and the fan spins but no heat. i replaced the heating element but the problems still there. on removing the back it appears theres no power to the heating element. ive not swapped any wires around and this has worked fine for the last3 years. what would cause it to stop producing heat?

do you mean relay or oven switch?

are these expensive to replace and where abouts is the relay located?

thanks

There will be a relay that will operate the heating element. This is most likely the only cause now if you replaced the heating element. A multimeter will tell you if you have voltage across a wire (there are devices that will tell you if a wire is live by clipping around it [non-contact device]) Maplins or similar will sell multimeters.

Hope this has helped!
