4 screws hold the fan cowl at the rear of the oven, remove them and remove the cowl to reveal the fan with the element coiled around it. Remove the single screw attaching the element clip on the rhs of the element. There are a further 2 screws either side of the element attachment point, remove these last. The element should be pulled towards you and then the three wires can be disconnected, make a note of where they are connected. Replacement is a reversal of the proceedure.

The main element on our oven has failed 3 times in 4 years so you need to get used to doing this.

Hi ive just fixed the same problem. Its the main oven element that has broken. I looked around on internet for 1 but cheapest was £40 so i went to local electritions and got 1 for £27 and fited it myself.

Sounds like the main oven element is gone. Never worked on your type of appliance but generally there is a plate at the back of the oven ( usually where the fan is situated ), held in place by a number of screws. Remove this plate and you should see the element. Again the element is held in place by some screws, undo them, element lifts away and and then you should be able to disconnect wiring. Fitting new element is reverse of above process. Hope this helps.
