Oven

[garfield]

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone would know if a fan forced oven Westinghouse POH 688W would have a fuse? Ours was working fine and then just chucked it in.

Thanks
Geoff

How recent a model is it? Does it have a display with an error code?

Few ovens I've seen have a fuse in them*. it's a separate circuit back to the meter box where the fuse/circuit breaker is.

*Experience limited to moving them, not installing :-)

When that happened to us it was the element. In our case though, the fan still came on, but nothing got hot. The "normal" elements in ours still worked, but no fan forced until I replaced the element..

Thanks for the replies guys. There just appears there's no power what so ever as the hole thing has blanked out. There's no fan no lights and no display. I have replaced the element in it before though.

It's a Westinghouse POH688W about 10 years old... It's been working fine and then just stopped.

If it fairly recent it should be on a separate circuit back to your meter box and there should be an isolation switch somewhere nearby the oven.

Check the isolation switch and the fuse in the meter box.

Hi everyone. Thanks for your help it's much appreciated.
Yep it was the circuit breaker. The element is not working now so I dare say that the element cr@pped its self and set off the breaker.

Thanks again everyone.
