Possible Causes
Oven function selector switch failure, Broken live feed to elements, Tripped thermal cut‑out, Faulty terminal block connection
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Switch off the cooker at the mains before inspection.
- Check timer settings: Ensure the clock is set correctly and the oven is not in automatic or delayed start mode.
- Test multiple functions: Try fan oven, conventional, and grill. If none heat, suspect a common supply issue.
- Inspect terminal block: A technician should check the rear terminal block for burnt or loose connections.
- Thermal cut‑out: Many Hoover ovens have a resettable safety thermostat. A technician can locate and reset or replace this if tripped.
- Selector switch: If power is present but not routed to elements, the oven function selector switch may need replacement.
